no rust though. I suggest you do either the vinyl one...or do a full cover up like I finally did

here is a before and after of it.







I guess that seems to be an issue as of late. This is my second one and the same issue. I am going with a BSM vinyl.

Here is a picture of mine right after I had baught the car last OCT. I didn't like it. So I ripped it off last weekend. It was held on by M3 tape. I noticed there was scratches underneath. So as of today I baught the plain gloss black one. Also purchased a new GT deck lid emblem since it was missing. The one in the picture is in my trunk. Think im gonna sell it after I clean it up. Anyways...

I feel the same about most of the cdc, roush, etc. I guess different strokes, huh.

I have the magnetic one also from AM and I love it. There's something about it having a little thickness to it that I like, and the finish is awesome. It's not gloss black, and it's not matte black, it's a perfect satin black. And with a little Armor All, it really looks good.

One caveat though... they do shrink in from the edges pretty quickly. It was really bothering me at first, but then I just took some black vinyl from Hobby Lobby and wrapped the outer edges and it looks fine. You can't see it at all from a distance and even up really close, it looks good. Here's some pics.

Where did you get that black gas cap on the back of your car? It looks great! I would like that on my Grabber Orange coupe.
