I had a clear bra (Ventureshield) put on, protects it well but there are 2 downsides:
- Gives it a shine (I originally painted the fangs mat black) - Fangs are not 100% covered by the clear bra, installer could not get the material in the far corners, so there still is a small edge towards the back exposed.

So: 1) Stop tailgating. Seriously, this is where most of the chips originate... 2) If it's actually chipping/peeling, then take it to the dealer as there is a flaw with the paint. |

personally I wouldn't take a spray can to my car at any cost. But I was recently involved in an accident so I told the body shop not to paint the fang area (copy Modshack hehe). But I believe the Evo-R is a stick on right? I never like stick on carbon fiber stuff, it makes it a bit thicker (I know I'm picky!) But yes the CF does look great too in the fang area.
