    Hi I just picked up my roma 2 weeks ago I didn’t really drive it but today I noticed there’s dark spot on body line of the fenders I mean BOTH side fenders. Is this normal I’ve never seen something like this before and since I got this on both side of my fenders I wouldn’t think the detailer at the dealership would make the same mistake twice ?it’s literally at the same location of the fender but passenger side it’s little bigger. Did he burn through my clear coat or what is this thing? And I’m certainly sure that it’s definitely not shadow.

    Hard to tell on the photos, but any decent paint shop should have a paint thickness tester, or you could buy one:

    https://www.amazon.com/VDIAGTOOL-Thickness-Resolution-Broadcast-Rechargeable/dp/B09XMHNDVG/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?crid=1B9GXKW1H4X4F&keywords=car+paint+thickness+tester&qid=1691826201&sprefix=car+paint+thick,aps,390&sr=8-2

    if it is localised thin paint you can go and have it out with the dealer. It might not have been “done by someone” and could be something as simple as the car was transported by open truck with a cover that flapped a thousand times on those areas. Anyway, you could measure the paint and then talk to the dealer.

    I love Ferrari. I love Ferrari more than any other automaker. They are not really known for 100% defect free paint jobs.
