Pics won't do it justice. You have to feel how bad it is, I kid you not its as if I bought an aftermarket front bumper but I throw on a couple of coats of wax from time to time to restore somewhat of shine. The hood is just as bad including with the terrible touch up paint that does not match at all.

As many miles as you drive daily I would change Mobil 1 at 12,000 miles

Mo,
Did you get the transmission fluid, coolant, and gear oil changed? They should all be done around 90k-100k. It's funny because I am sure none of the techs have done this yet on our cars.
