well other than you, rrimport and me. i don't think there are other AZ pearls around.

I know every single scratch on my car lol but not because it shows, just from weekly inspections.

i don't think AZ pearl shows scratches that bad, i can't imagine BSP or
Indigo ink pearl.


wow that was more intense than that one time I forgot how to sit down...

Oh well chips are another thing, i stopped counting those, there must be about 8 just on my hood!
but i think thats with all the scions, toyota paint is thin as hell...operantly brittle too...

u should see my IIP hood/front end. they look like chips, but almost like bubbling too. my hood is terrible. its like chunks of the paint (size of pin-heads) are just gone. anywhere on the front end that is metal (hood, fenders, etc..) has these chips in it. the plastic bumper is fine. makes me think the paint didn't totally bond with the metal too well.

i've been so pissed about this since day 1. especially when i found out they discontinued my paint code after 2005.

did someone say defective paint and/or clearcoat?

I have AP and it does scratch easy. And not like any other car I have owned. Most cars scratch but are still the same color. On my tC, a rock chip goes all the way to metal.

I also have a Azure Pearl colored Tc. I also have minor chips on my hood, can't do anything about it. Especially when you're driving and car/trucks kick up rocks on your hood and windshield.
