maybe if i could clean the exhaust system it wouldnt be so bad, it doesnt really put out black smoke, but i am sure it doesnt help that its black as sin up in there, now how would i go about cleaning the system?
It isn't just exhaust, it is road debris, or a combination of the two.
I wiped off the back bumper this morning after the dew got on it, and I drove to work. There was ALOT of black debris on the bumper.....on a white car it looked like ***!
So I guess I will carry a rag with me to wipe off the bumper in the mornings.

i never wipe it off cuz it just swirls up the paint. i just put up with it until the next time i wash the car. but yeah after i wash the car and take it out for a spin the back is dirty every single time but the rest of the car is still perfect

It comes from the water in the grooves of the hatch/trunk area. after you wash your car pop the hatch and let the water drip and dry that also. Its because that area is still dirty and the water drips with the dirt in it onto the back bumper.
