It is probably a product called Rock Guard or Chip guard which is applied to the panel in a lot of lower body areas. If the color coat is intact you can just apply it from a spray can. Available at most auto parts suppliers.

While coming back from a trip to South Carolina, one of the tire on the back went nut and the sole(?) or the thread separated from the tire (at 70MPH). I was able to pull over without any harm even on the busy 95 and the thread at the speed I was going did completely break the plastic wheelhouse splash shield but, worst, ripped out some paint from the panel just behind the wheel. I checked it out and it seems that it is some kind of plastic paint or something that can basically be peeled off. Anybody know what is it? I'd like to repair it myself, if possible. That is, BTW, on my 1993 Imperial. Thanks in advance! -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== ==== Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:laurentdaudelin@xxxxxxxxxxx
