Question about a up coming paint job

I have already established that I'm getting a rust spot fixed on my '09 car, covered by warranty.
Now I have one other area where paint is peeling, but not TOO much.
My concern is that over time it will get progressively worse and worse.
The area that it's happening around on the inside rear bumper corner near the back rear tire.
The body shop rep said it's just primer and that I don't have to worry about it really.
However, my concern is that if it's not fixed, in a few years it may slowly start to peel and get worse and it won't be covered by the manufacturer warranty - which expires in July 2012.
Should I be worried or not?
It's a plastic bumper obviously, which isn't too concerning, but aesthetically it would be annoying if it did peel too much.
I felt as though the rep was doing me a favor saying, we can do it, but I don't see the need to, etc, etc.
Really put off by his tone, but he's not lifting a finger and Honda is covering the cost.
He also added if it were him, he wouldn't do it.

Sorry to hear about your issue.
However, each vehicle manufacturer has many different suppliers of parts, such as your bumper fascia, where the vehicle was assembled.
So----before you expect an answer of some expertise, you really should tell the viewers about what vehicle, etc.
Once I and others see such important information, it may be possible to provide some input.

Re: Question about a up coming paint job
kuba- FWIW that bodyshop guy is displaying an attitude that would make me wary. Sounds a bit too accepting of your car having a cosmetic issue (that's clearly unacceptable to you) for my taste. Wonder if he'd consider imperfect work by his shop to be OK too

You know how you found his tone off-putting? IMO that's a clue that you should pay attention to.The most interesting man in all of Autopia Land. (<--I didn't enter that!)
