That happened to my 03 E46 M3 when it was two days old. No damage from the egg acid, but chipped paint in circular pattern in EIGHT locations on the car. I was bummed about it for a month and it still makes me mad when I think about it. To fix the paint would have required a repaint to about 90% of the car. The egg scratches were small but quite deep, some down to the metal. Couldn't be touched up because there were literally thousands of independent, closely spaced cuts into the finish.
