is this a condition that will get worse over time?
You can only really tell there's a problem when you're right on top of it.

Darn these mustangs seem to have orange peal from h***.Like i said in another tread,i saw a mineral grey one today that was simply horrid.I dont get it,why is this happening? I was at the auto mall, so i thought would check out mazda 6 (build in same plant) and the ones i saw didnt seem to have anywhere near the orange peal that the mustangs have. (dont they paint both cars in same place?)
As for your paint,yes take it to a GOOD bodyshop and get them to wet sand and polish car,and that should take out most of it.Personally i would take car to dealership with a estimate of what that would cost,and then i would demand they either pay for it,or do themselves! And if they say no way,then phone ford head office and raise all bloody you no what...

I didn't notice on the hood but, mostly on the rear of the car, by the rear quarters and now in pics of the trunk. Hmmm what to do. :scratch:

I agree w/ Tom . And not all carss have orange peel As I have said before I looked closely at other Ford models and didn't see it. Maybe if Ford is made aware and more people complain they will do something about it. If no one complains they think every thing is ok. I may get in touch with them not because I own one but, because I want one. Is orange peel caused by applying to much paint? Is it possible they can adjust the nozzles? I'm just guessing but, I think they can do much better. I didn't notice on the hood but, mostly on the rear of the car, by the rear quarters and now in pics of the trunk. Hmmm what to do. :scratch:

It would be the same as the when the dealership pays for warranty work, they are reimbursed by Ford.
