Bird shit at 100+ mph

BimmerFan61 · 09-01-2007, 04:00 PM

What are the odds of bird shit hitting your hood at this speed. Well it hit mine today. I was doing about 110. I immediately pull over and wiped it all off but the damage was done. About 2 inch by 1 inch scratches where you can feel them with your finger nails. Tried scratch X and it did nothing. I have jet black so its real easy to see. Anyone have any other ideas? Quixx maybe? I would take a picture but its been raining all day.

Happened to me too, except i was lucky that it hit my windshield, so no damage to the paint. A little on the paint, but scratch x did the trick.

Clay bar will not remove these scratches. Im thinking it needs to be wet sanded
