Bad idea... You are covering up your front grill. You may run hot. You need that part open at a minimum.

I can't see that stuff holding up more than 20 miles. I drove 550 miles with blue painters tape all over my front end and it held up really well to bugs and small rocks. When I took it off my front end looked beautiful even though my grill (untaped) was a small insect graveyard.

Tape your mirrors too, forgot to do that and mine got a ton of bugs.

And tape "aerodynamically" have no tape edges exposed to air flow otherwise they will peel up.

Yeah, you'll be surprised how turbulent air can be from driving.

You should just get it clear bra'd before the trip, since the car looks relatively new.
