To begin...for the past couple of years, the hood, roof, and front bumper of my '03 GT have been having some issues with the paint. About 2 years ago I first noticed a small strip of paint becoming dull on the roof just above the windshield and rear window. The front bumper has had the clearcoat "separate" and bubble up off the paint. The dulled spot on the roof grew and also started showing up on the hood. It worsened so I finally took it to the body shop back in the fall to see what they could do...they had painted the car back in 2009 so they said that they'd take care of it. They determined the clearcoat had failed. The owner said he'd set something up "in a few weeks" after that visit.
A few weeks became months, and it kinda fell off my radar. I had other things going on and never followed up. Lately I've been gearing up to go back by the shop and ask about getting it done but I wanted to have a few other items addressed first.
Today while I was out at lunch, the shop calls me and asked if I could bring it on the 13th so they could take care of the work. I said yes without hesitation. Now I'm getting jazzed up for this. I'm finally gonna get that ugly dull paint taken care of and the car will be practically back to new again. Woo hoo!
Edit: added info on the front bumper
