DTDRIVER:

Respectfully - I haven't seen the brand / type of paint yet that will patch holes in plastic.

It's not so much that the bumper is scratched (although that's another reason I took the plate holder off - there's no felt or anything between the plastic edge of the plate holder and the bumper of the car). It's that I've got an actual hole in my bumper cover, right on the front outer surface and clearly visible (to me, at least).

I did mention this to the representative from Honda that called to do my post-purchase survey over the phone this weekend. Maybe they'll mention it to customer relations. Who knows ?

BTW - HandAAccessories carries a paint pen in the Honda colors (but not in MagPearl yet These work so great, vs the conventional brush-style touch up paints. Give one a try - I wouldn't use anything else - and anything I couldn't cover adequately with one would be a candidate for the shop, anyway, IMO.
