Body/Aero Kits Making Paint Uneven

I was thinking of putting on a body/aero kit, the ones that you can just mount right on the bumper, sides. Did anyone ever have any experience with removing the kit later and finding discoloration?

It will happen. That's just the nature of the beast. If you heat up exactly half the pan, then only half the pan will get hot. (Don't get technical there.) Same goes for the UV exposure on the paint surface. Now how long does it take with our paint? You might be better off asking that in the subie forums.

Easier analogy.
Sit in the sun with sunglasses on for a couple hours. When you take those glasses off, you have raccoon eyes.

I thought about that same analogy, but with stickers. Then I said to myself to not say that, because that's a chick thing and would probably have people wondering about what I do in my spare time. The shades make it not a chick thing though.

Yea sticker idea would have worked.
