Hey, i've noticed that my rear wing and roof has these grey/white spots all over it, i've been watching it for a while and it seems like its like fungi or someshit cause it grows.

I've rubbed my finger over them and its smooth, its like its under the paint. Been polishing my car every month

Been taking good care of my paintwork since i bought the car but these spots just came out of nowhere lol and they keep getting bigger

my car has the paint code kr4 which is silver

any ideas?

will post pics when i get home from work

its smooth like the rest of the paint, no known chemicals have been dropped on the car, it started on the wing, then i noticed it on the roof the other day, its spread evenly across the roof and wing only, its wierd lol

weird as. if its smooth, can probably be buffed out. but, it could also be clear lifting and ready to peel. kinda hard to say without seeing it in person

take it past a deecnt panel shop and get a pro's opinion maybe? im kinda stumped

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
