    Hey, that's just more Honda "surface excitement." What's not to love?

    Yuck. What's that a $1k to $2k+ job?

    The new skin needs to be painted and color matched. This takes at least 3-4 days.

    You've got to love SoCal, drove my family home in my new 2016 4Runner and in less than a week it had been hit/scraped twice while parked. At least in the south it's just door dings from inconsiderate drivers parking their cars, not bad drivers hitting your parked car.
