Default Worm Trail on Dash
I just discovered, after having a new windshield installed, a worm trail on the leather dash on the passenger side. Don't ask for a pic.

It looks exactly like a worm makes after a rain. sort of squiggly and about 5" long.

I do live in the swamps but no worms allowed on the Jag. Any thoughts?

Is this simply leather getting that broken in look?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Maybe the windshield guys dropped some goop on the dash, and it didn't completely come off?

I have a worm trail in the same area, it has been there since day #1.. I assume that there is something under the leather... I’ll send a pic tomorrow, if I remember..

No droppings, for sure. Just this worm trail looking detail in the leather.

P.S. The windshield cost $1200.00!

That's it! Is this problematic? Or just the character of leather?

Thanks The dude!

Isn't that just "Character"?
