Hi Chevyrules. I had one big bubble on my hood the day I picked the car up from the installer. It took about 3.5 weeks before it disappeared completely. It's a daily driver so the bubble saw a lot of rain and grime. The installer told me NOT to touch it, nor wash the car. Under the nose (not visible) it was slightly peeling near the center of the car (pointy) due to the excess of film. That never straightened itself out and now, like you, it's full of dirt so I would have them correct it.

Nick

Looks great! Did you install the valance or have a shop do it? Trying to determine if its worth the effort to do it myself or pay a pro to do it.

You’re covered by the Xpel warranty if it was installed by a certified installer. They will replace the entire piece at no charge if even a small section will not adhere.

Installed the used Roto-Fab CAI and Pray ported throttle body I picked up off the forum. I disconnected the battery before starting, when it was connected back up the right steering wheel control for the DIC wasn't working. Shut off the car, did some research and found nothing. Started the car back up and it works.

Splitter was easy, the side skirts took some time but went on fairly easy. Drivers side was a hair short but went on with a little convincing.

Finally got it. Bit of a change, lol... Lower ride height, less power, but 1 second quicker in the 1/4, lol.

Removal and reinstall was all done in my garage. A little time consuming, I removed the entire rear fascia, including tail lights, it's a good idea to have someone help with balance on one side while you are on the other when removing or reinstalling. The fascia and tails both come off pretty easy. Phastek has a good video for this project and would suggest watching it before hand. You can do this...Good Luck!
