I'm sure others are seeing this as well.

I've got an '04 TL and just noticed two very small points of rust starting on the hood, where the grill trim meets the metal on the leading edge of the hood. There has never been any impact there so I think it is just careless assembly (?). I would like to think that Acura would do something about this but only if others are seeing it as well (and we make a stink).

Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks

Yes mine did the same thing. I took it in to them and they put a little more felt on the back of the grill piece and touched up the spot behind the grill on the hood. Looks great now and its been alomost a year. I wanted the touch up method because I didn't want my hood painted. I have never had good luck with anything I have ever had painted. The dealer recommened the touch-up method first with the understanding that if I didn't like the results they would paint the hood. needless to say I was very pleased with the results, you can't even tell anything was done.
Just a side note, if you remove that piece you will see a small peice of felt on the back that keeps it from rubbing the hood. On mine the felt didn't go all the way to the edges which caused it to rub the hood on the corners of piece of plastic.
