^&%$* dealer "complimentary" wash...
 Unfortunately for this picture, my paint reflects my garage's crappy drywall pretty darn well. There are no horizontal seams in the reflected wall. After having my new Yaris for two weeks for a repair, my dealer scratches my car's paint.  I admit that I failed to specify "no wash" before pickup. Fortunately, the scratch(es) weren't that deep. I had a pretty scary looking one down the side and several on the top of the rear bumper cover. There was NO WAY I was going to let the dealer "fix it" (ie go after the scratch with a buffer) - they'd probably take off all the clearcoat. Several passes with some Scratch-X followed by some cleaner wax has fixed the problem. Fortunately, I didn't have to go too deep into the clear. Man, the Yaris really does have delicate paint! Sorry, just venting a bit...
