WDP owners with winter conditions

I wanna know if you get a lot of chips from winter salt and rocks once it all melts down in spring. I mean, does it show a lot?

Are there any disavantages with this color? I personaly would HATE to have a scratch with this color vs. those with darker ones (more subtle but still makes you gringe when you see them).

But when it's cleaned up and waxed up...I have to say that this one looks like an angel on wheels

Best of both worlds I guess...arrrrgh. Why snow...WHYYYYY

I'm looking at this certified 05 Navi with a a-spec kit and it is WDP. Looks so hot but here in Montreal, winter is a mutha...especially the last one we had. Something like 6 feet of snow. If I had to pick it, I should get it clean like twice a week and put on touch up paint each spring + buffing.

Well, you eventually paint the bumper... I've had mine for 1 and 1/2 years, and my entire right side of the bumper has about 50 chips. It is probably because on a highway, these 3 fuckhead government plow guys ran together and shit was shooting from the sides of their cars... probably left the salt dispenser open or was just shooting rocks around.

Who knows, but my entire right side was chipped up. I zoomed past them and thats when it got really bad, hence the 50 chips. I couldn't stand 40 MPH on the highway.
