I park my car outside my shop everyday, and in my driveway, at least 15 feet from a high tree.

Happened to me the first week I owned the car. I'm still looking for that darn bird.

Not yet, but I get thick coats of dust on a regular basis. The car is lucky it's a Mustang, it gets treated right.

Had mine about a week before the first bird poo incident.

Yesterday, I found a bird in my garage.
The pony was out in the driveway.
I made several attempts to get the bird out to no avail.

I finally got him in a corner and was able to get him in flight where he flew straight out the door straight into the pony in the grill of the '05.

Bird hits the ground, flops around for a few seconds, and finally takes off.

The pony was unharmed. Just a little shaken.

At least it is not a rock ding. I got my first rock ding 4 days after I got mine.

You could look at it this way. At least your in possession of a car that a bird could poop on. There are so many that haven't got there cars and want get them for that matter. Just a thought.

I'm going on 2.5 weeks since I bought the car, and no bird poop yet! However, since I'm doing the wash, clay bar, wax routine today, I'm sure it will happen within 24 hours! Oh yeah, and the Southwestern roundup trip too, which should severely dirty the 'stang by the time I get back!

Thats a big never.....

Ellie is never exposed to the great outdoors long enough to be crapped upon.

A rock ding...nother story. Stupid dumptrucks.

I got pooed on when my dealer told me it would be 2 months to get my vert. Looks like that will be more like 6 months.

I went 5 days, but somehow, luckily, it was only on the passenger window and not the paint. I don't want to know how the poo only hit the window. That bird must have been doing a fly by to hit me like that! Only problem was I wasn't thinking when I got in and hit the down windows, darn poo gathered up on the window seal material!

Rock Dings - 1st drive! I do think the paint is easily chipped, as I now have 3 chips in the front fascia.

Bugs, had a drive this weekend from Cincy to Indy and back. Had to wash her ASAP yesterday to get those bug guts off. Good thing about Zaino, it seems to make getting that stuff off a breeze!
