Thanks, I tried to put the center caps on and they didn't fit (universal blank center caps)! I was pissed because they looked like they would be awesome. So back to the drawing board. Ordering Aero Flow side lip extension today.

Yeah I thought about that, I have never worked with vinyl so it would be a first for me.

Considering what you're trying to wrap, it would be super easy. You would need a heat gun (or hair dryer) to make a clean bend around the edge of the emblem.

Love the rear spoiler. Did you buy the $50 one from carbon.king on ebay? The listing on ebay says it come "PAINTED" lol but it doesn't say what color. How long did it take to come? It sticks on with 3M tape? Thanks.

Most of the eBay spoiler that come painted you have to give them the paint code in the customer comments. Yes 3M tape.
