My car (2002 WRX Wagon) is about a month old.



I`ve noticed that the water spots on the glass do not go away with washing, Stoner`s, or claying.



Also, I just FCRC`d my hood (factory installed swirls) and now I can see this odd surface shape... like a million tiny pits.

Well, not too many WRX pics and several blurry ones that didn`t show much......



But I`m betting your problem is acid rain etching. That`s prolly what you see on the hood and glass.



Ya might want to do a board search on acid rain to see what others have said & done.



Don`t feel bad; my car`s got the same problem.

Yeah, sorry about the GTI, bro`s car... the pics were for photoshopping some LB`s on it.

The one thread I found on acid rain didn`t allow any more posts.



What I think I have here is etched glass rain spots from the dealer.

Maybe resize them before posting?
