Very very upsetting

What can we do though, apart from washing it daily?! Might have to beg my mum to use her garage this week!

I suppose if you just give it a rinse everyday it should be ok, just to ensure it doesnt settle on the paintwork

Yeah I noticed the paintwork was much softer when I had my bumpers smoothed, the paint seems to chip for fun.
Least your GTI is safely tucked away Alex
