Same problem,, after 500 miles I saw paint chips on the front of the rear flares. I thought this can't be, how will this look in 15000 miles??? Ugh, what a design defect. Good news is my local body shop is super cheap- the guy will spray them for $300 all around if it gets really bad. Still, this sux.
