Hey guys. Is the paint toward the bottom of your car (where the sideskirts are) kind of rough and bubbly? Both sides of my car are like that from under the car till the bend where it flows into the skirt. Why does this happen? Thanks for the feedback.

Mine's like that. I think it comes with imperfections because it's almost certainly going to get some rock chips. Now you can't really notice them.

Thats actually supposed to be like that. It is not the paint itself, but a coating under the paint, almost like rubberized undercoating that you can buy at an auto parts store, but a lot stronger. Our car is very prone to getting rock chips in that area, so its basically stone-guard, thats painted over in the factory.
