I don't have any issues yet but I will be watching. I have heard that the clearcoat is soft and my limited experience with it so far would seem as such. When I bought it I asked that it not be detailed because I was afraid what they would do to the clear. There were already water spot circles on the hood (could not be removed by washing) from sitting on the lot. I removed them carefully with a non abrasive polish by hand. Currently, there aren't any other blemishes that I am aware of.

That being said, matching a brand new paint job should not be difficult for any quality shop. The spoiler that I purchased matches perfectly to my Black Cherry paint and was pre-painted when it came in.

If I had/have defects that were covered under warranty, they would/will be fixing them... until they got it right. I still have the majority of the original paint on my 21 year old TwinTurbo and even though it is far from perfect, it has held up very well. There is really no excuse for paint defects out of the gate with the paint and application technology available today.
