    Hopefully they took off the hood stamp and redid it if its a full PPF on the front. I have suntek full front with wrapped edges and you cant even tell its on there.

    I learned my lesson to never get ppf done at the dealership. I bought a Lexus many years ago and part of the deal was that they would install ppf on the front bumper, hood and side view mirrors. When I got the car back, there were huge bubbles, sections that were creased and the hood section wasn’t lined up straight (they only covered the front 1/4 section and not the entire hood). I refused to take delivery and they agreed to reinstall it. Well the second attempt was worse than the first. Had more bubbles, creases and misaligned hood. Also, instead of taking the bumper sensors off, installing the film and reinserting the sensors, the installer cut the holes out around the bumper sensors. It looked like a kid took one of those safety scissors and tried to cut a circle but came out a distorted polygon. I brought the GM over to show him the work and express my disappointment. He basically said it is what it is. So I said you’re right and walked out that dealership.
