Again, just so everyone understands: the hood has never been "repainted." I picked up the car two years ago from the dealership with less than ten miles on the car, and the car has had the same hood ever since. Unless the hood was defective from the start, I'm not sure how this could have happened. |

The hood could have been painted by the dealer with 1 mile on the odometer..there is no way I see OEM paint wearing this thin on the edges. I have had the same exact thing happen to me on another car and it was the lousy body shop I used..they did a rush job Either way the hood needs to be re-sprayed correctly.. |

So much speculation in here, like the factory can do no wrong.

Bought a 2006 330i brand new from the dealer. It just came off the truck and the door had already been repainted. It can happen, trust me.

Agree with a couple others ^ hood could have been repainted and since the car hadn't been delivered they didn't have to declare it. It could have been anything though. Factory? Do you have pets? Weird kind of vandalism?

Not normal at all. Mine looks perfect. Must have been repainted before.

OP's hood was NOT repainted before. I've seen the car in person.
This has to be some sort of defect from the factory. I've seen plenty of cars with minor dust specs from the factory etc. And yes, that includes BMW. My source: Auto Painting |
