The one that I used would almost surely sag and get punctured easily, if not backed with a solid surface, it was pretty thin.

I am still using these BTW and there are no signs of wear. I also added lower grille blocks, but mounted them differently: each mounting point had 2 small holes for a zip-tie. Only after pushing the zip-ties through, I applied the 3d-carbon stuff. It doesn't look perfect, but is still quite discreet.
