I don't notice any of them except for the back bumper scratch anymore. I did that over a year and a half ago, and there's been no adhesion issues and no rust (two of the spots were low and on the wheel well lips). Even the back bumper is much better.

Super helpful, thank you for the DIY advice. One scratch isn't a big deal, but I didn't know it would happen so quickly around here. So I assume it'll happen frequently in the future.

HA! That's amazing, I might steal that setup for myself.
