Ive found a few little problems with the VR's paint. nothing to major, but little things that are annoying and will probably get worse if not fixed soon.
1. clear coat peeling. ive noticed about 4 spots on the car where a little break in the clear coat has come up and its started to peel from there. ive noticed it on each side of the rear window, the rear door, and around the aerial hole. what would i need to do to get this fixed? im assuming id get the clear coat sanded back in those areas and resprayed with clear?
2. cracked paint. my bonnet has got 2 spots where the actual green paint has cracked and i doubt it can be fixed easily. one is a little line crack, and the other is like a spider like crack. would i need the whole bonnet resprayed? or can individual spots be sanded back and painted?
i doubt this is something that can be fixed easily at home, so ill probably end up taking to to a spray painter to fix

1. it will need to be sanded, primed and some base coat applied before its cleared otherwise it will show up. if its near an adjacent panel those panels willl need to be blended so the color is 100%
2. cant really tell you anything about this one without seeing what it looks like.
but it sounds like youre starting to get crows feet on your bonnet.
you can fix the cracks but the rest might start to craze up later down the trackbut like i said before it needs to be looked at.
worst case scenario, paint strip the bonnet and blend the guards
