Is the Sport Turismo's trunk panel magnetic (metal) or plastic?

Just curious if I will be able to put magnets on either side of my license plate. Two recent non P-car vehicles had a plastic trunk panel. I guess they do this for weight savings but it was kind of a bummer.

(BTW please don't hate - it's "a thing" around here...kids teams, schools, etc; everyone shows their colors)

I don't know the answer to your question but I would suggest vinyl stickers. They go on damn well and will need not much more than a fingernail to remove.

Thanks. Good thought. I'm pretty much a price taker in this case however, as they hand out magnets and am not sure they have other choices.

There's a simple way to find out.
If they stick, try to take them off as much as possible. They will mar the finish is left on 24/7/365!

Have not ever had that issue on other cars. Is that a P-car paint thing or have I gotten lucky? Talking about 36 month leases with magnets on the entire time without issue.

But it certainly true that I will find out shortly
