Car Wash Issues
Hey all
So i have a 12 g37xs with the factory bumper and skirts kit. I can't seem to find a carwash that I can drive into without scraping the bumper. Anyone else run into this problem? Am i stuck hand washing? Is there a way to put swap bumpers to not have the low lip?

I try to stick to touch-less car washes or the ones with the spray gun you do yourself. Mostly cause I don't want their brushes to scratch my car. I'd suggest you do the same.

ahhh ok there aren't a lot of those around here. I will have to go hunting. Are the auto washed notorious for paint scratching ?

Yes but more clear coat scratching than paint. I avoid it just to be safe and it helps that there's a touch-less one closer to my home. There was one time where the brush took my aftermarket mirror cover off. It popped back on but it made me think of how hard it was hitting my car to be able to take that off.

I made a stupid assumption after being through one my wife took me to in her car. There were pressure washers blasting the brushes as they spun. My stupid assumption was that it must wash the debris off from the car in front so it would be safer. Used it about 5 times myself to get snow and salt off after storms and the entire car is covered in fine scratches now. I'm going to have to spend a weekend correcting the paint now. Never again.
