Bumperplugs?

Anyone running these on their RDX? I ordered a pair and received them today. The instruction that came with it says to handle with care and to not push or bend to prevent paint from cracking. Can anyone vouch for the paint quality? Will it hold up being parked in the sun daily and after multiple car washes?

Looks pretty legit for the price paid, if their 19 Stage Finish process is as they claim below with three stages of clear.

I can’t say anything about the Honda/Acura product but as a Porsche owner I have always got my bumper plugs from Bumper Plugs. One Porsche, 21 years old, had plugs in the front bumper that were about 20 years old. It was a special color and the company, then in its early days, were able to match the color perfectly. They make them for most cars so heck them out, they may even be less expensive than the Honda offering.

Slightly off topic, back in 10/2018, I posted this alternative to Bumper Plugs in this thread: License plate bumper holes

After researching the www for options, I decided to make my own bumper plugs for my 2019 Acura RDX. I used Hillman Variable Depth Push Fasteners for GM which can be purchased at Lowe's. Cost: $ .72 + Tax. I sanded and sprayed the fasteners with White Gloss Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch 2X spray paint from Home Depot. Cost: $3.87 + Tax. The diameter of the fasteners was a little larger than the original license plate holes, so I trimmed them down with a razor blade to fit. The idea is I did not want to enlarge the original license plate holes so that I could reinstall my front license plate for the annual Safety Check. Mission Accomplished! Total Cost: Priceless.
