I was putting the new stickers on my license plates this afternoon and I happened to see that the space between the bumper and my bumperettes was filled with small stones. I had to use a small flat head screw driver to gently get them out.

Has anyone else seen this happen?

My detail shop uses a high pressure hose/wash first for this very reason. We all have tiny rocks around the entire car in the seams.

I don't know if I would be bragging about having small stones on a Porsche forum.

The first place I looked was your state,--granite. (My area is mostly sandstone,--and thus smaller and slips through).

You're not alone. I have them too. Gotta clean them out every week or so. Same model yr, and color as yours too!

I've got them on the seams at the front bumper.

I'm kind of curious how exactly these stones get in there.....

Amazing,
I have those too... how the F$%^ do they get there... whay arent there paint chips all around the area if stone are hitting hard enough to get in there !!

Mine has a few pebbles trapped in there also. I think these get in there from the underside as opposed to the outside of the rear bumper. If I recall correctly, aren't there some gaps/holes at the attachment point between the bumperette and the rear bumper? I suppose the rear tires kicked up the pebbles that made their way into the bumperettes, which then got collected at the exit point.

Your ballast is leaking out of the seams
