Angry Layer of Plastic Peeling?

I noticed today on my rear lower bumper valance ( which is black plastic, that conforms around the tailpies and spans the whole lower rear and terminates at my mudflaps) I have in some areas the top layer of plastic peeling off in spots and can see the edges where the peeling stops. The layer underneath is also black so it is not screaming at you, but in normal daylight you can see it and it definitely bothers me.

I would imagine, and hope (yes Lewis I said it ) that Porsche sees this as a manufacturing/materials defect and will cover the replacement of this plastic bumper valance.

Anyone else have this happen?

Dealer says that it is a defect in materials, has never seen it before, and they will cover new part $340.00 plus install - one hour, for free-ninety nine!

I could have probably lived with it, but then again why should I have to.

They replaced a bunch of the trim on my 04 Pepper...as some kind of a service recall.
