I did a run up I-75 this morning from Tampa to Brooksville. Upon arrival I notice a whole host of little splatters on the left rear part of my rear bumper.
They are flush with the paint and appear a darker blue than the paint color. 95% of them are no bigger than 2 to 3 mm accross. However there are two about 10 by 5 mm. Those have light spots in the middle that appear to be the PVC of the bumper. I tried removing them with cleaner wax and polishing compound. No joy.
Does anybody know what may have happened here? Did some truck I passed or that passed me splatter some paintstripper or corrosive stuiff on my car?
Guess I'm going to be out of pocket for a bumper repaint. Probably looking at $300 or so. *grrrr* Since I dunno who did it, I doubt the insurance (full coverage) will cover it. And if mine does, they'll probably jack up the premium more than $300 this year alone...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I can make pictures of the damage available if need be...
