Ok, I just got back from picking up my car from dealer. The painted GFX looks awesome! I checked under the front spoiler, plastics rivets are on. The sides are solid. The rear....well, almost perfect. The top corner edge (near the back of the tire) has a gap, the 3m tape is not strong enough to keep the edge pulled in since the edge naturally pushes out a little. The service manage immediately acknowledge there is a known problem with the tape or glue that is used to secure the rear diffuser and showed me the bulletin from GM. Dealer will order the improved tape or glue and re-do the rear diffuser. The whole part will have to come off again so I hope they'll not have a problem peeling off the tape that is already has already cured on the car itself. There were some small paint chips on the rear diffuser from installation, dealer will touch it up when they re-do the rear kit. Dealer said they will not paint GFX again! And the reason GM voids the warranty if you paint it is because if something goes wrong with the GFX itself, a minor defect, etc, the kit may be salvageable and re-usable but if painted, they can't fix and re-use it because it is painted to a specific car color.
I took some pics, I will download later.

I love the look of the car with painted GFX!!!!!
