Smallest, thinest piece of PPF. And it does not go high enough to protect the fender.

Looks ****ing fantastic. I do not mind the badging, but I would have tried to get the front one to be white (instead of chrome) to match the paint. Love the blacked out badge on the back.

Thanks! You know I did think of making it white for the contrast, but wasn't 100% sold on it. Maybe when I get bored I'll change it up haha.
I may try this. One way to test it, which I may do myself, is to plasti-dip it. It certainly will not be paint color correct, but can give us an idea if we want to commit to having it painted. I am also thinking about color matching my rear applique to white. I would do the door handles too, but that is a big expensive job
I have 70% XPEL Prime XR Plus on my front windshield as well... but I am experiencing some waviness in the film.
I've attached a VIMEO LINK with a video I uploaded to demonstrate what I mean, pay attention to the leaves and how they distort as I move my phone (or head while driving).
(yes I've waited about a month for the water to evaporate)
It's super noticeable and I've contacted my installer and he says this is normal... Do you or does anyone else have this issue with their front windshield XPEL film???

Interesting. I have the XPEL on my windshield as well, but I haven't noticed any waviness yet… My wife noticed there is a small 4-5 inch wavy line in the rear left window that could be in the glass and not the tint, but we're not 100% sure.
duh, he did write that. It doesn't appear tinted in the photo from the rear. Just the optics I suppose.

Life lessons kids: lots of things do not seem like they are from the rear.
Hmm,
So no waviness at all other than that? I have it all over my windshield and I’m pretty sure it’s the film
is anyone else experiencing something similar?
Why don't you cut a deal with your detailer: pull the film off and then check the window. If the distortion was from the film, it is re-installed at the detailers expense. You are just out a day of your car. But if the distortion is the window, you had to pay to get it re-installed - or better yet, ask Tesla to replace the window before getting the tint installed.
Another option could be to go back to Tesla and see if you can find a undelivered car and check. This might be easier and less time consuming.
thanks, ill do that.
i was just curious to see if anybody else has this distortion issue with their front windshield film.
