Wow! Thanks for the update! I was wondering how it would hold up over time, and how easily it would come off. Any chips or premature peeling?

Plasti Dip

Great news! I'm going to paint my rear valence this week as well as black out my emblems. Did you ever paint your spoiler?

I had no peeling issues. I think i said it berfore in the thread but i tried to clean some stuff off with wd40 and that messed up a little section. It did chip a little but i think it held up better than paint bc its softer.
