I zoom therefore I am.
I had color matched (painted strakes) from RX8strakes for 6 months.. then i replaced them with the OEM strakes from mazda.
The colored strakes had started to wear and chip.. hope you have better luck then I did.

Rear Paint
I removed the rear bumper cover (20 min job) and let them sand the bottom to remove the texture. They sprayed the bottom VR and cleared the entire bumper. I had them paint the "grills" black to add contrast. The whole process took three days and $150. I removed the bumper to avoid overspray issues (car was a month old).
