Suggestion
This is the result from using Plastidip, it does get damaged with a whack, but can easily be redone
Leading evidence: 'Use plastidip' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use plastidip' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Is there anyway to touchup and restore the look of this GT3 front splitter? I heard of something called plastidip?
The damage was done by the previous owner. The car has the front lift kit, so its worth restoring the look as its not likely to happen again.
Get used to it . I think the 7.2 that I had was fitted with the RS version which seemed much better .I would cut the damaged lip off altogether on that one
Mate, in all honesty, it
WILL
happen again...... You should try a 6.1
WITHOUT
a lift kit
😞
Whilst I haven't tried it, I would think you'll need to remove the splitter, gently sand back the scrapes, and then paint the whole item. However, Plastidip is a removable coating, so you might be better to get a black vinyl spray, I think Duplicolour do one
Sand the marks down and use Matt black touch up paint hides some of the marks or make,s it less noticeable or alternatively someone could wrap the lower section in Vinyl but it is only going to mark when you scrap it again , part of GT3 ownership
I would not use plasti dip like twoheadstas said it is removable , they claim it can take impacts and is durable , but I found that is not the case ..

They take a whole minute to take off, two plug/pins thingys on either end and the rest just slots in.
Sand back the scratches, repaint with the cheapest Matt Black spray you can find.
The whole job should take 15 minutes.
Buy a new one and stash it away for when you sell it.
Stand back and admire it, alternatively, put a new one on and place it back in the garage on blocks
Not helping I know.......
FWIW, Mine has extras since purchase
... yes even with the lift kit and best efforts you will (definitely) still scrap it. Just ignore it/live with it and when it gets super scrappy buy a new one
Yea, it`s only 2 small fasteners at the ends and push clips across the front, sanded it on the car as it`s floppy, put it across a couple of saw horses and the can of plastidip in the sun,gave it a spray and chucked it back on, done it a couple of times now.
