Well that didn't take long.

I was driving home tonight and just as a pickup truck went by the other way I caught a glimpse of a stone flying at me. I heard it hit, but thought it was along the driver's side. I was psyched when I got home and checked and found no ding. Then I saw this on the top of the fender.

The other spots are road dust and some rain spots from a shower I drove through this morning. I got an estimate for a clear bra last week and the guy said something like if he goes up 6" on the hood and fenders that the first rock chip would be 7" up. Sure enough, this chip is exactly 7" up from the headlight.

That sux dude... BUT... at least you got it out of the way.

I scraped the shit outta the bottom of my fangs OUT OF THE BODY SHOP PARKING LOT when I got it touched up and my fender antenna filled in ! hahahaha

C'est la vie !
