Or you could paint. I know its probably 3-4 times the cost of a panel, but you wont have to worry about it again.
Mine is flat black and I did the hood, rear spoiler, taillight panel, and the small space beneath the license plate.
$700

I painted mine as well. The magnetic looked horrible when dirt got under it.
