While washing the car today I have noticed this. :bad-words:

The black paint on the Mugen rear bumper looks to be peeling off on either corner.

===== Update =====
Paint on the rear bumper have been fixed and paid for Honda warranty.

Big thumbs up to Gatwick Honda to get this approved from Honda and get it done.

Eek. I'd get on top of that before it gets worse.

Maybe worth a call to the dealer you purchased from? Or your local dealer firstly.

yeah, will definitely give the local Honda a ring soon.

Just out of interest. Whats the deal with Honda in terms of paint warranty?

Ooh should have asked that! Presumed it was a M200/20.

Is it official mugen? :shouldbeinteresting:

Things like this are quite sketchy as they don't really fall under corrosion etc. Either way its covered by the standard Honda warranty which I presume the M200 is still covered under?

dandemoraliser, its a M200.

Thanks EvoStu, looks like mine still fall within the 3 year cover.

Update:

Have taken the car to my local dealer for inspection (plus getting a pair of yokohama fitted).

They comes back admitting the paint is peeling off (good start) but they do not have the equipment to investigate futher, but agreed to chase up Honda warranty on my behalf.

Hopefully I will heard from them soon.

@Harrier, have you spoken to Honda on the problem at all?

Still no response from Honda warranty.

Honda request a paint reading but the dealer only have equipment to do such reading on metal.
