    I saw this on my Civic invoice. Anyone know what, exactly, this is? It
    cost $289 whatever it is. I'm going to ask the dealer about it but
    thought it a good idea to get a second opinion here.

    TIA,

    In Canada, we have a national tax called the GST (gouge and screw tax).
    In Britain it's called the VAT. At your dealer, they stuck some plastic
    protector over the leading edges of your paint / headlights and didn't
    mention that they were sneaking it on to your bill.

    It's a moneymaker for the dealer, but may be a good thing for your car
    (depending on what it turns out to be). I might just be some Scotchguard
    on the fabric and some Armor All on the dash :-(

    You should try to get your money back, since they 'slipped it to you',
    which is against consumer law (in Canada).

    Yeah my dealer tried the old tack extras when I bought my 2003 Accord. $80
    for rear mud guard which do nothing. I told them to remove them. They
    tried to say it would leave the tail of my car unprotected from mud and rock
    chips. Bull! After 70,000 KM there isn't a single rock chip on the side
    fenders behind the rear tires and there's $80 more in my pocket.
