possible paint issue

I waxed the car this weekend and noticed that my back bumper has what appears to be these faint little pin size specs in the clear coat. Up really close they look like little bumps or bubbles? Im gonna bring it to dealer but i was curious if anyone has had this issue?

thought the same thing and got confirmation that the bumper had been re-painted from a serious detailer here in San Antonio.

I have read a lot about people have issue with the paint job on their back bumper. I however am having issues with chips on the front end. It seems that the paint job does not hold up well against everyday wear and tear.

I have had many new cars by the way. This issue is only been a problem with my Max.

Nissan paint is terrible
Soft. Not enouugh primer underneath
Plus the bumper paint from
Nissan doesn't match rest
Of car finish

I had my front bumper repainted when I got car cause it was the first thing
My buddy said when he saw my new car , now matches perfect and won't chip easy at all
