Suggestions?
As part of it i'm thinking of having them fix the rest of the scratches and dents and then maybe a clear bra or something? or maybe just a new hood because thats so hard to touchup paint.

As Superintendent Chalmers would say, "It has to have the 'H'...that's how you tell it's a Honda!"

Just gave my PWP TSX a good cleaning and coat of NXT and discovered tiny little rust spots on the bumper. They are directly under the lip of the trunk, in line with the emblem. They are very small right now, about the size of an "o" in 6 pt. font, but I don't recall seeing them the last time I washed and waxed. Gonna keep an eye on these and bring them to Acura's attention at my next service.

Any idea if this is rust or something else?
