JC - Would some of those things be noticeable at delivery?
Unrelated - just saw your vid on your M3. Congrats broski! Love the paint/interior combo!!
Hey what's up Yogi!! Let's sync up soon for a ride bro!
Yes, some times you can see it staring right at you even before a decon....those are red flags to me when it's noticed at that point.

I totally understand feeling that way. The topic and how people feel about it could be seen as a bell-curve. Most people fall somewhere in the middle of the OCD and the aesthetically apathetic.

If rock chips don't bother someone, that's a blessing in many ways.

Not sure if this is directly addressed to me but I am happy to share a recent project that came to us. A 991.2 GT2RS w/ an optioned-out Weissach. The following video was shot immediately after we gently washed and chemically decontaminated the car. (For posterity's sake: I've not made it a point to fault Porsche for "irreparable" damage. Just draw attention to the fact new cars are not necessarily perfect cars.)
