Weird. Mine's 11 years old, has been in one fender bender, three hailstorms
and 11 years worth of general wear and tear and the paint's incredible. Is
Honda using new/different paint these days? Or is yours silver (i.e., thin)
paint? Mine's dark red, so maybe that's just longer lasting paint. (?)
Either way, that sucks. I hope you get some help from Honda.
