Any discoloration, chipping, etc?

The lip still looks new (and it's my daily). The bottom of it (though you cannot see it) has scraped quite a bit and i'm on stock suspension. There are no discoloration (and it's been in some brutal hot summer temps) and no bubbling. Of course i detail and wax my car (including the carbon fiber bits) twice a year.
The rear spoiler is also doing great, no discoloration, bubbling, or chips. Been to the track twice at over 100MPH and still holding strong with just 3M double sided tape.
The mirror caps, on the other hand, is a totally different story. I haven't gotten the white marks or discoloration, but one sort of started to bubble up. I want to say the mirror caps are manufactured from a different factory than the lip and spoiler.
Bottom line, the CF Wing and front Lip still look new since the day i bought them.
I'd skip on the mirrors though. Either get painted matched mirror caps or get the screw on OEM BMW mirror caps.

I decided not to get lowering springs. I left the suspension alone. I am already scraping going into my driveway and into the work parking lot. If I had lowered my car, the lip would have been a goner for sure. I work in the City so the streets aren't the best for it.
