Bad PPF job...what to do?

[MerlintheMad]

Good news boys - they did a decent job the second time around. Nothing too egregious like in the pictures. Thanks for your support!

Lesson learned to do my research next time.

Would you be interested in posting some "after" pics? We already have the "before" pics.

Awesome! Glad to hear you got it taken care of.

Will do! I'll get a few soon.

Here's an example of a corner after fixing. Before, you could see in the picture it just looked torn off and it was already chipped and dirty. The biggest improvement was stuff like this and the lifting/dirt under as a result.

Overall, the car is definitely still not perfect but the lifting is gone. I'm not a perfectionist, I just want to enjoy my car, and frankly I don't want to deal with them anymore since I feel I've pushed my luck so it's good enough for me.

When the time comes for my next car, it'll be a valuable lesson learned. Do your research and make sure they have reviews and examples for the service you're looking for! This place mostly does tints and they had great reviews for that.

^^Is that the rear corner of the hood? Because that little exposed tip is normal. Both rear tips of my hood are exposed. I would expect the same finish/cut on the forward tips of the hatch lid.

Yep! That's the hood. The pic in my original post was actually from the trunk but looked the same as this used to look. I'll reword it, I meant that this pic is what it looks like fixed.

Yup, they don’t cut a little point because it gets caught up by your wash mitt and peels up.
