Default Carbon Fiber Vinyl, would this stuff last outside?

Im thinking of wrapping my DD Infinity Qx4 spoiler with this stuff, and using it for some amp racks. My question is if it will last outdoors?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

I want to adhere it to a flat smooth surface (my spoiler) which is very thin about 3" X 48" ontop of my suv, the clearcoat is chipping so I just want to sand it smooth and apply this stuff and cut around the edges

Will this product last outside?

Will it peel up on the edges?

Would it stick to body filler (to cover fiberglass amp rack)

I bought 3m Di Noc, it does not look anywhere near authentic. It may stick and last well, but it wasnt as good looking as this stuff appears to be.

Im more curious if it will stick and not lift on the edges if on a car that sees all form of weather. I want atleast 1 year out of it on the spoiler, I just dont want it lifting after the first rainstorm or car wash

I actually think the 3m Di Noc carbon vinyls is one of the best I've ever seen.

Yeah I was looking at this persons work when he was doing peoples roofs, consoles, etc. It seem to look really nice. Obviously you could tell its not real CF, but it didnt look bad at all. I wouldnt mind doing some pieces in my car.
