PPF Install Question?

Posted by knead_the_dough@reddit | askcarguys | View on Reddit | 5 comments

Just had PPF installed on my brand new car for $6,000 and I’m honestly starting to worry the job wasn’t done well enough. I have a follow-up appointment scheduled with the shop but before I go back I wanted to get some outside opinions.

I’m noticing fingering/lifting in a few areas, spots where the film doesn’t seem to be sticking properly, and what look like cut marks in the paint where it seems the blade may have gone through the PPF and scratched the car. Since this is a brand new vehicle, that part is especially upsetting.

For the amount I paid, I expected a much cleaner install, so I’m wondering if this is considered normal or if it’s clearly unacceptable work. I’d really appreciate any advice on what I should say to the shop at the follow-up and what would be reasonable to ask them to do to make it right.

Thanks in advance for any input!
