Default black speckled rear bumper

ok i went out to my car earlier and noticed i have 2 billion black specks all over my back bumper and hatch/wing, mainly on the passenger side.

is the car running rich? is this something i should be concerned with?

i've never had this issue with the car and the only thing i can think of that i did differently is recently i changed the oil and used mobil 1 10w-30 fully synthetic oil and a mobil 1 filter whereas i had been using honda oil and filters...could this be a cause?

any help is appreciated guys, thanks

if your car is white or yellow..which I suspect...It happens

On my old GSR it was like that...even on my 350Z? I have no clue how it does that,..but mainly from all the **** that gets kicked up by you car.

yeah it's yellow....so it's probably **** off the road? that was my first thought as well, but the fact that it was only on the passenger side had me thinking...i guess i'm being paranoid...

unless the whole bumper is black, enough to write silly sentences in it lol, then I wouldnt be too worried. Probably just some carbon/exhaust mess. if its really bad, could be richness or worse, oil. If you are using a stock ecu then I wouldnt worry about it running rich enough to be a problem.

yeah i am on the stock ecu still with only a comptech short ram and header, stock exhaust, so i'm guessing i can't be running too incredibly rich......thanks for the input guys, i can always count on the ITR forum
