Unhappy Thin paintwork on the Au !

I dunno if its just my car ( if it was resprayed around the frontend before i bought it ? ) , but after giving the car a bit of tlc today i noticed i have copped a stonechip about the size of a 5 cent coin, right on the top of the front wheel arch :( . The paint looks extremelly thin ! , and was very easy to flake away until i had no sharp edges . I also noticed that on the roof / on both sides about an inch in from the doors, and about an inch away from the front windscreen , that there is like small rust patches building up under the paint ! - is this normal for the AU's ? , darn looks like ill be looking at a new paintjob sooner than expected at this rate..lol
