Default Head lamp dirt rings question

So I go out to my car and I find that centered with the head lights there are 2 parabolas of dirt that are laying on my front bumper, exactly where the shadows would be if my lights were on. The paint is not faded, b/c when its clean, these parabolas are not there. It's definately dirt. Anyone else notice this? Or have any theories to offer?

Sorry, no pics

Do you have HIDs?
The hids are high frequency lanps and attract
dust like the old CRT TV picture tubes.

Nothing more annoying than a problem that makes no sense. I know that this post will not help you in anyway, but I hope you find a solution to your problem. Best of luck and if there is any place that a solution or an explanation exists to this phenomena, you definitely are in the right place.

It's not really a big problem, just REALLY annoying. My guess is its only noticable with white or yellow stangs. I'll try and get pics up later so you guys can see what I'm talking about

Sounds like the Twilight Zone! Keep us posted if you find the reason.
