Who the heck would know that? Only a handful have done this at all, and likely no one has used both. Your local sign shop can supply you with the material or you can buy it from these guys. Matte black Vinyl is not rocket science, especially when from reputable manufacturers like 3M..

Even the unpainted plastic looks good...

I just don't get how VIP's stuff is about $145 & BlueBat's stuff is $42, why the big price difference? Modshack, your car looks great, did u paint your rear valance?

Thanks...Unfortunately I got hit in the rear necessitating a new bumper. In it's natural state it is a satin black plastic just as you see it. I had them mask it off and NOT paint it...

Did the same up front:

Oh now I get it, I had one of my side skirts replaced, but never knew it comes in black before it's painted. That's def pretty smart. Hey, why is VIP's stuff $100 more then BlueBat's stuff?
