LOL sometimes mix of english and beer makes me sound crazy!!!

I was to lazy to paint it...but when i first got it i think it was loking good becaust the scoop was exactly the same black as the door handles plastic under the wipers, grill etc... but its getting white so i will bake it and mold it and paint it...but i think that baking the 3M might hepled alot with the adhesion...

haha!! me too sometimes! I also used 1500 grit sandpaper and sanded where the tape goes, just too give it something more to "hold" onto. I also had some heavy books sitting on the edges all night. I think it will hold pretty good.
