Just an update guys, apologies for the delay. I'll be dropping the car off tomorrow for some rework. I discussed with them my concerns and sent more pictures.They did express these issues were not acceptable. They immediately put me on the Schedule for rework. I know they will be re-wrapping one fender and a headlight. Some of the edge lifting I had fixed myself and none of it has yet to reappear. I know I shouldn't have had to fix anything but I think to an extent most of us would attempt to smooth an edge out before it got dirty or wet. Overall I feel a lot better at least with their service. I'm supposed to pick it up Friday so I'll be sure today drop an update.

Yeah, that's bad. Any reputable PPF/wrap/tint business should do a way better job that what you showed in the photos. I'm no expert, but perhaps they didn't prep well enough or just had amateur installers on your car? Good to hear that they're fixing it for you!

I've done a lot of research and decided to forego PPF. The one issue with PPF I don't like is the possibility for bugs to embed themselves and even discolor the film due to their acidic levels. There's a lot of debate on that, but I've seen photos of the possible damage. Knowing this I originally wanted to do just the splitter, air intake trim for the brakes, side mirrors, and door handle pockets. However, the best installer local to me wanted my car for an entire week to do it. Should be 1-2 days for just this small amount of application, so I declined. This is my daily and don't want to give up a week for that.

But I'm still doing ceramic to make it easier to hand wash and do touchless spray washes.
