I just noticed that the matte finish is beginning to chip off of 2 corners of my 2 month old SR black macbook. It has been extremely well taken care of and never scratched or bumped, so I am disappointed that the finish is suddenly peeling off (especially after paying more money for the black finish). It is not terribly bad at the moment, but I am worried that it will progressively get worse. Has anyone had a similar experience that can tell me if it indeed does get worse with time and if apple recognizes the issue and will replace the case?

It's not just a finish, it's made of black plastic; so it may chip off and crack, but it will never expose a different color underneath.
