Default Cure for CDC Chin Spoiler Curb Rash

I love the look of the CDC aggressive chin spoiler I just put on my 'Stang, but I promptly ran it into a curb and ruined the paint along the bottom edge. I found a site with automotive wheel well molding and purchased a roll of black vinyl trim to cover up the scratches. Looks great! And now I have extra protection against my clumsy parking.....

Part number is MDGWW-FT. Be sure to get all black.

Ah, very niiiice. Great idea, wish I had thought about before hitting that cobblestone road with the steep incline. Those cobblestones did a number on my chin spoiler that even this cool trick won't cover up. When I get a new one I'll def keep this neat trick in mind.

I'm thinking about going with the Steeda one this time though, and it may not work on that model...

Wow, that really looks like it came from the factory like that. I like it!

Can you just peel it off if you scrape that and replace it or what?

I plan on getting the CDC classic chin spolier over the winter. As with all of my vehicles, I have invested in the 3M clear bra. I plan to have the chin spoiner painted, then over to my guy for a custom clear bra install on the spoiler. This material is much more durable than you would believe. He has changed a pront piece on a Nissan 350z because the owner hit a parking stop. The old section peels right off, there was no damage to the paint, and he just reapplied the 3M material. I've seen a demo from a certified installer try putting a key in a clenched fist through the 3M film, didn't work, he couldn't do it. Might be an alternative worth looking into
