This is happening with more than just honda's, some of the new toyotas have paper thin shit paint as well. One pebble and down to the metal it goes!

My friend's Ralleye Red DX had paint flaking off the front bumper FROM THE FACTORY. Around the headlights. The Honda stealership repainted it for him. I didn't take pictures as I knew Honda would cover that shit.

In your warranty manual, theres something about paint..
I forget what it was exactly though..

I know they won't fix it if theres rock chips etc etc
but I guess with the orange peel and such, they might fix it.. but you'll need some good evidence because I'm sure they don't wanna paint the car all over again
