So I take it you're leasing your car? I'm sure any Honda dealership can give you the correct 'industry standard' thickness, but I would imagine that you'd have a good legal basis to argue any dispute if the dealership says "something has been repainted, so you're being charged". They'd charge you if you didn't fix it, so that's BS.

Aaaand, I'm going off on a tangent again.
