What the hell is this now? (nevermind)

Nevermind.. Was just some odd light reflection. I'm an idiot. We now return to your previously scheduled program.

Just noticed this while standing outside, never noticed it before. Its only on one side. It appears to be light spots in the paint that follow the contours behind the rear window.

Anyone seen this? Thoughts on how to fix it?

Don't feel bad. We all have found "invisible spots" at some time. Light reflections can be very tricky.

The worst part is, I stood in front of it and masked it from the sun and still thought it was there. Started researching BMW paint and warranties. Lol

All for nothing.

Sometimes it drives me crazy when I'm dodging and burning photos of my LBB in photoshop because the reflective qualities of this color and finish are crazy! I finally realized I need to leave most of those things in rather than making it look more flat and (un)natural.
