If I had to do it again, I'd definitely apply some sort of protection against rocks and road debris.
Yah, I've had some experience with a CF lip on a E46 M3 and due to it's low ground clearance started getting chipped up after the first winter.

I found a newer 3M VHB tape that might actually be better for our use. It's the RP version of the tape. Seems to be better suited to sticking to "low surface energy" surfaces like the CF and plastic brackets.

I'm going to use this newer version for my lip install.
