Got a call later that afternoon and then didn't hear back. Went over there today, he was out but the service manager was in. She took a few pictures, told me the area Honda rep would be in tomorrow and she'd review it w/ him. I did mention these boards and that it's a widespread issue. Man, I'm bummed.
On the upside if they refinish my bumper I'm hoping that will remove some of the scrapes/dings I've gotten over the last 3 months.
I'd really, really be interested in that service bulletin so I could show it to them as well. Anybody who can link me and the others I would be really, really appreciative.

mwhyte72,I just had mine fixed,you should also call the the 800 number to american honda they wont do much for you but they did take my vin# and and made a record of my call, if you print out copies of this forum get copies of the pics of other fits peeling in the same location, all should be fine with the rep approval, I think honda is well aware of the problem, and maybe have the dealers playing dumb about it to keep sales up. anyway the most I would worry about besides having a brand new car needing repainting, is them scratching or staining something else in your car, mine came back with scratches in the back vinyl that wraps around the window frames, a new chip on the hood, and stains on my seat, word of advise do a visual inspection with whoever takes your car in and get a signed report, I did not, so now its my word against theirs that the stuff was already there, sorry for the such a long post, but good luck.
