If we are talking a cosmetic scuff, then no, it won't be covered unless you could prove your car came like that. It's like asking VW to repair my stone chips for free.

If it's functionality has been compromised (leaking road noise or rain in) and it deteriorated on it's own or was always like that then it should be a warranty claim.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....
