I have used the Carbonio for a couple months now for my .2 GT3. I have taken the plate on and off several times and have noticed that my insertion/placement has caused the paint to flake off the grill. IMO the flaking is caused by the plate's rubber pegs rubbing on the grill's metal as I rotate the plate's backing to place onto or remove it from the grill. I believe this problem would not be an issue had the grill not be painted but that's not the case. The unit so far has not dented the grill. I plan to use the Carbonio until the end of the track season when I'll purchase a new grill ($200+ part) and look for a tow-hook plate instead.
Unfortunately I dislike the tow hook solutions. The offset look offends my OCD eye!
