I might just end up doing a CF wrap or flat black wrap on it, but we'll see.
A trick I use is to take an exacto knife and cut score a line at the edge of the tape before you peel it, this way it wont mess up your edge. Just take your time and try to make it as straight as possible.

Never spray on top of clear coat, it will flake off unless you are using plastidip
