Weak paint on G35?

Weak paint on G35?
Somehow, I got a bunch of little paint chips on the front of my hood, just above the bumper. I saw another G35 at a dealership that had the exact same problem. Is this just coincidence, or does this happen with G35's a lot? And if so, why? And what can I do about it? Thanks to anyone with any input!

But I use a car bra when on the highway, which helps.

Seems like the paint is particularly soft. My parents have a black 03 BMW and a black 04 Lexus; the mileage is similar and niether of them have nearly as many scratches as my car. My OB has chips and scratches all over, and this is driving in fairly good Maryland conditions. I figure my car looks amazing as long as you're about a good 3 feet away from it. Now I just gotta figure out how to touch up those little chips and scratches...
