350z Paint issue, need help! 56K warning

[go7roo7]

This is my 05 Z. Has currently 74k on the clock and 24K on the motor.
When I bought it the paint was alright and had several spots where the owner tried to fix the paint.

This is how the paint looks now. I dont know what these marks are or how they were acquired. I wash/ wax/ seal-ish about every 2 weeks. I have not tried wet sanding but I wanted to hear the forums input before I took the next steps with either taking her in for paint or fixing it. The scratches on the roof are actually from squirrels that used to eat on there while my car was out of the garage ( now shes in the garage at all times ).

Anyone know what these are what procedure I should take to clean em up?

Thanks in advance.

I'd say that was lovebug damage. I've never seen it on a black car though. If you've left lovebugs on for ~2 weeks at a time, it will damage the paint.

Some Z owners will go to great lengths to prevent this from happening: LOVEBUG SEASON for Z Owners in FLORIDA - MY350Z.COM Forums (http://my350z.com/forum/south-east/512825-lovebug-season-for-z-owners-in-florida.html).
