Quality PPf install or need to redo this work?

That looks pretty terrible. I would not be happy with it.

I'd like others opinion as to the quality of this XPEL PPF install. Apologies about the dirt, but the ceramic coating is still curing.

The bumper is very difficult do do I understand, but I am a bit unhappy about the relief cuts, and the ripples. Some of the PPF is overlapping itself near the splitter, or poorly adhered at the edges. There is a ripple in the front bumper PPF as well, near the headlight. Would it be worth it to redo this work on my follow up appointment?

The hood looks pretty bad around the emblem, though I asked them to remove the emblem. It looks like crap with the emblem partially under the PPF. The areas where they wrapped the PPF around the panels is starting to come free as well, but probably can be trimmed without issue. The installer has agreed to redo this already, but wondering how hard to push over the bumper.

I already had the rear glass replaced due to this same shop damaging the defroster during tinting. They did pay that though, so I feel like they will take care of my issues, but want to make sure its worth

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but did you ever get it redone somewhere else?

I had it redone at the same shop. I wasn't into spending more money, and the second round looked much better.

Tried to send you a PM (couldn't find how), but after reading everything you went through my heart just ached. I wanted to offer to redo the PPF for you gratis. I do a ton of Teslas and believe I can give you an install you'll be very happy with. Just wanted to put the offer out there.

Thats Very Generous! I really appreciate the offer, but at this point all the surfaces look good. Others here might seek you out to have their Tesla's done though.

The PPF looks pretty bad. I ordered precut templates and my DIY looks much better than that. The wrinkles are likely due to stretching and not adhering to the paint.

Same here, my self install of the pre-cut kit looks better than their shop job... and it was my first time with PPF on a car. Full disclosure, it did take over 18 hrs over the course of 4 days...
