Hey all,
I know on other models (I think the 8th gen.) they had a few models that were sent out with defective paint. I live on guam and had a crazy amount of paint cancer, well my wife took her car in to get the air bag replacement done and showed them the paint. Honda offer to pay for half the paint job since there isn't an actual recall on the paint for our model.

Hey all sorry I didn't get back on this, I left the island to avoid the typhoon from hitting and the car is ready! I picked her up the other day and Honda followed through. The paint looks great and they company even painted the front, rear bumper and wing for free. (Honda only wanted to pay for the everything but those as they didn't seem to have any huge issues with them.) I'll try and get some photos up when I can. Total it was $850 for me, $850 for them and $250 on my part to get a dent fixed.
