paint peeling? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello i was looking at my camaro last night and notice the entire point, between the upper and lower grill on the front bumper, is rubbed off. After closer examination, there is no physical damage done, or i didn't hit anything. Do you think this could be the paint peeling or someone scratched it off? I know

but my camera isn't charged right now and hoping anyone has an idea on what is happening.

Hand washed or automatic car wash?

Both, it all depended on if i was in a rush or not. Also it happened mid-day, that morning it was fine but after work it wasn't. To add, i park front end in to a grass walkway, and someone can't bump into it causing the paint to come off.

Would have to see pictures but I have read a few other threads where the paint had peeled near the fenders.

So this was a sudden thing? Doesn't sound like a factory paint defect then.

Any chance the grass was mowed that day?
