Default '19 350 F Ceramic coating and broken rotor

So I've got about 1500 miles on a new 350 rwd fsport. Got her ceramic coated with cquartz finest reserve and then broke the front passenger rotor by taking a hard left turn(not hard enough to be ruled abusive driving or not covered by warranty). Lexus said there has been one other report of the same thing happening on an IS. Attached are some big pictures, notice the very small fine beading of rain water on the hood of a freshly ceramic coated obsidian black paint.

That's a manufacturing defect. No way it should break just by turning hard. Lol

Yeah it shouldn't break like that. Nice I have a 2019 IS as well. No ceramic coating for me though. I just got xpel clear bra done on the front bumper the other day.

Can't wait until mine looks like that again . Purchasing all the supplies this week for total paint correction and most likely ceramic coating. Obsidian black also it's a must.
