Scuffed spoiler fix
I have read several comments about the spoiler getting scuffed and have looked at mine with something approaching horror. There is not much I am not able to hit with it. Tried something today that "may" be a fix. I sanded the scuff marks out with fine grit sandpaper (I have read that steel wool also works) and then applied black shoe polish. After buffing, it looks pretty good from 10 feet away.

I sand the lower edge anytime the burrs appear. Haven't replaced one yet as they're on back order. No point in changing until the original gets really thrashed. After a while you figure out how to limit extreme contact of the lip anyway.
If you're really worried about it I'm sure it could be removed, sanded and spray painted.
