Does anybody know if 2000 silver was the same as 97 silver? Looking at this trunk off of a 2000. I am thinking of doing the trunk swap like portflow.
Looks like I'll have to get a spoiler as well.

I feel like its the new "jdm" craze. My friend bought a Tc and thats all he talks about now. He plasti-dipped his grill mirrors, emblems, and his rims. And he thinks his car is "clean" Kinda sad really. But I do like the idea if it coming off if you want to revert it. I want to do that to me chrome time on my windows and just do a paint top coat.The heat is starting to come out now!!
Going to Por 15 my front wheel wells after I cut and fold the inner lip So they don't slice up my tires anymore And so I can run no splash shield and not worry about it rusting.

That stuff is so incredibly solvent though... I have a real hard time believing that it comes off without doing at least some damage to the paint.

A rough surface (faded paint, no clear) will hold the paint together better and will have a hard time peeling it off coz it breaks up. On the other hand, a clean waxed panel offers the most ease when time comes u want to peel the paint off.
