Hey All! Owner of a 2007 Express Cargo and I had a good size piece of paint peel off of my hood last December!
Now I just have a big primer/e-coat spot on my front -
Dealers giving me the "Gravel has chipped your paint and caused your paint to peel"
I've seen gravel chip the paint but it doesn't cause de-lamination ? Paint and primer should be bonded and like one! at least to my non professional view point...
I see a bunch of vans driving around with the same kind of issue...
Also read up on the paint problems from before(90's) with the automotive safety board...link
Anybody else have this going on???
pics?
frustrating...

2007 is way beyond warranty so GM wouldn't be obligated to do anything.

I just repainted my 08 hood. It started last year. Fortunately the rest is still good. I was told to keep the nicks touched up to prolong the paint life. I also added one of the plastic hood protectors thinking that if I would have done that earlier, maybe I wouldn't of had to repaint.

given those options, the used one at the junk yard would be my first bet.
Next would be to spray it myself, the hood is tiny and the paint would be relatively cheap.
I have been considering spraying mine with black plasti-dip for something different. Or could go with the vinyl sticker option,

My hood paint job still looking good. Went through and touched up the edge of the RF fender and body edge behind the drivers door. I just know that someday I'll look back and a sheet of paint will be missing where I least expect it.
