Now remember the PPF mentioned earlier?
These defects are caused due to installer error and lack of pride in your work. This installer has been doing this for seven years and still can't get it right. If I did the install it would never leave with defects like these. http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...a/IMG_1721.jpg http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...a/IMG_1723.jpg http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...a/IMG_1726.jpg |

Yeah, I'd be pissed too considering what that guy likely paid for that car.
Heck, if I did the cleanup for him, I think that car would have gotten "lost" somewhere.......... :hehehe: |
Nice work. I hope that was not a brand new car in that condition.
