Congrats and nice job on mounting it.
Ditto. You would have a hard time spotting that from a distance.

Any change of putting this on it?

It appears to be HDPE or ABS, so not sure if anything would stick to it very well. And if it did, it wouldn't last long with all the flexing it gets put through. Maybe if the logo was molded into a rubber piece, and screwed on.

Good to know it'll probably last that long. I probably picked up at least 30 feet of it and I passed up a bunch too. In about 4 months there should be a ton more out there.

My front is goin strong and it doesnt give under wind stress due to it bending around the front to meet the wheel wells. Definitely worth a try and can be made to look really nice! Ive tossed around the idea of doin sideskirts with it as well but dont know if it will be worth it or not.
