Oh yeah, you asked me before about the tint. Yes, it's hard and time-consuming and I would recommend paying someone else to do it, should be about $200. That being said, I'm glad I did it myself, and I only had a couple of very minor bubbles. You need a heat gun to do the back window though (a real heat gun, a hair dryer won't do).

If you want to make sure they don't chip, do it 2 stage. Meaning, buy the color you want plus also buy a clear spray, put on 2 or 3 coats (wait 10 minutes between coats), then put on 2 or 3 coats of the clear as well. The specific brand doesn't really matter, and I don't recall what brand I used, but if I were you I would make sure that my base color and clear are the same brand so that you know they are compatible.

I just put on a base color (2 coats) and I haven't had problems with chipping.

In regards to the spoiler, you only need flexible paint if the spoiler itself is flexible (for instance, I had a Trans Am which had a flexible rubber spoiler). Regular paint is fine for our rigid plastic spoilers. Don't let people scare you, this stuff isn't that hard as long as you are patient and careful.

Make sure you have that plastic fineline tape to tape around the outside of the rim cuz the regular masking tape won't curve enough to do the job.
