My fiance really wants a black car. I beg and plead with her every time we talk about it - anything but black! Looks great, but you can see everything .

To be fair, any color of car would be equally dirty. Fingers on the decklid?! Tell me they have a grab handle inside. Keep that up and you’ll have permanent etching in the shape of fingers.

Sideways, uphill both ways.

Hell, I don’t even touch the outside on my white car when it’s dirty... Rubbing crap into your car’s paint is always a bad idea.

oh.. but it looks so good when it’s clean! :) (Honestly I’m kinda going through the same thing, current ride is a dark blue and the darkest vehicle I’ve owned, shows all the dirt and scratches....)

The only thing I’ll do is write things like VTEC YO! on the back window of my wife’s Odyssey. It’s a gentle reminder to go get it washed*

*for almost 30 years I never had anyone else wash my car. Then the minivan arrived. It takes twice as long to do, but the pros only charge the price of a car...

My friends call me the rainmaker because it always rains after I wash the car. And what do you know, despite it being clear and sunny on the way into work Accuweather says it’s going to rain in 90 minutes.

I said I wouldn’t do it again after the first one. Had silver on the last car, it was great. Then we found a deal we just couldn’t pass up so I ended up with black.

If wraps were slightly less expensive it wouldn’t be black much longer.

Mine looks good from 10 feet when it’s clean, but the PO didn’t take good care of it so it looks bad up close. Lots of scratches, many I polished out while many remain, and it looks as if it exclusively chased gravel trucks based on the number of chips and pits in the bumper and rear fenders.
