has it frozen since it happened? if not then that might be it. if water was on a seal somewhere, and then it froze, it may have expanded a seal and let water in. But if it hasnt frozen since it first did it, that would be my first guess.

Hey man be patient.... Mine looked exactly like that when I bought it in April of 2000. By a year later the hood and the top were completely showing the primer.

I got it painted last year and it looks much better now and im happy with the outcome. Now I got so much more to worry about making nicer to match that nice shiney paint.

what is that thing you have in the hatch? The black plastic panel? Is that for your sound system or something? Looks like it flips down over the trunk well.
