Jet Black is rock chips magnet
Just spent couple hours detailing my JB e90 335i. Man my car has only been driven 1300 miles for one month and already got 7 or 8 rock chips
 Especially on the front OEM splitters that I bought from PJ @ M-Force. Apparently the did not add Flex agent into the paint, 4-5 white spots can be easily observed from each splitter. The factor front bumper is OK but there're about 3-4 rock chips on the front part of hood already.I have touched up all the rock chips and have made an appointment next week to have Clear Bra installed. I can not even imagine what the car's going to look like after 6 months. So looks like Clear Bra is the only choice that can save my baby
