After completing the install I had a few issues with the removal of some of the betalink and the glue from the duct tape I used. I used the betalink solvent and used a cheap microfiber towel and ended up with a bunch of small swirl marks and scratches on the trunk and spoiler.

I was easily able to remove them using Zaino Z-PC, but would highly suggest two things to others who will be performing this install:

1) Use blue painters tape instead of duct tape as it will leave almost no glue residue.
2) When cleaning up any extra betalink that gets on the car, make sure you use the same high quality towels you'd use in the washing and waxing process.

I should have known better in reference to issue 2, but since I didn't, I thought I'd share my experience so others won't make the same mistake.
