How to protect lower spolier corners from scuffs??
Well....I am disappointed.
New paint and body not 4 months ago on my 91 that gets driven only every other weekend.
Now i noted an ugly scuff driver side lower spoiler corner. The paint there cracked and peeled up too....which unfortunately my indicate the body shop did not use a flex additive in the pain there.
I've driven this car ten yrs now and have been super careful on dips, bumps, etc. As careful as I am though I still couldnt avoid this recent scar.
Its lowered modestly with eibach prokit coils.
Anyone seen anything available or heard any tricks for protecting these sensitive lower spoiler corners???

This is a paint protectant but if your scuffs come from pavement, the pavment will eat right through it. The only real protection is slow driving, air ride, or adjust to a higher ride hight. The shop probably did not use flex agent, however, the two leading paint makers (PPG,RM) no longer use flex agents in current formulations.

i went to pep boys and got black out tape and ran it along the bottom of the lip.

it protects it from scratching and it looks pretty good. mines not perfect i need to redo it.
