For all of those with silver manta I have a silver manta on nbm ss. My problem is I can't get the stripe clean. It lookes like it has really bad water spots on it, but they will not wash off. Everything I have tried hasn't made a difference. Any ideas?

During previous washes have you waxed over your stripes? I've gotten water marks out of my stripes, but I generally apply wax over my entire car, I think thats the key.

hey man, those damn spots drove me crazy, i tried everything to get them off. i am not sure how they got on there, i just noticed them one time when washing. i tried claybar, cleaner wax, everything i could think of. and yes, i waxed the stripe everytime it was waxed. not sure what to tell you there, if you like the stripe you may want to just have it painted on, or take it off all together if the spots wont come off.

I'm Looking at getting one a silver one for my NMB camaro.
-For those of you who have the vinyl....how hard was it to install, how is it lasting(signs of weathering)
-For those of you who have it painted on...how much was it to get it painted on?
