Default 2008 Caravan rear bumper problem

My 08 Caravan SXT has a black vinyl protector over the top of the rear bumper, obviously to protect the
bumper from scuffs and drag marks as you load or unload the cargo area.
Lately, I have noticed that the black vinyl is lifting in the center after it has sat out in the sun for a while.
The dealer is ordering a replacement, but it seems that a little contractors adhesive would solve the problem.
Is anyone else having the same problem? I have seen the same thing on a few other Caravans, and T&C's in my area.
Solutions? Did a replacement fix the problem?
TIA

Mine has the same thing -
there's a TSB out on this - some models made in Canada before Mar or May of 08 - the TSB says that the dealer should replace the entire facia (and repaint) and a new scuff plate. if I find the TSB again I'll post it.
