It's heavily taped-up, which is SOP for automakers attempting to foil
"spy" photographers.

I see tape on:
1) either end of front bumper,
2) center of front bumper (black tape),
3) inner and outer ends of headlights,
4) Honda grille emblem (black tape),
5) rear quarter windows.

Part of the "ugliness" results from the distortion effect of a VERY long
telephoto lens.

There has possibly been something done to the rocker panel molding, but I'm
not sure of that.
