Default Painted front bumper

I drive my car to work and back every day through all the elements so naturally it has a few nicks and scratches from road debris. The front bumper however has paint peeling off it on one side. Not a large amount but it is noticeable.

Does anyone know if Honda warranties this paint and if so for how long? I bought my car last September. Just called the dealership and got a recording for the service dept so thought someone out in S2K land might know something about this.

Thanks for any help.

Honda dealers have covered paint defects on the S2000 in the past. I would push them on it.

I am thinking about having it repainted and then applying the 3M ClearMask Protective Film. Has anyone used this satisfactorily?
