Super helpful! Based on what the shop told me, that corner cannot be completely wrapped like how yours looks. They said if a corner is wrapped like that, the edge of the film will soon lift up. Obviously that's not the case for yours!
I guess we'll see over time! BPAS has a lifetime warranty (I think) so they seem pretty confident about the install method... They did front end PPF on my BMW iX last year - I'll take a look at those corners on it when I get home to see how it's holding up...

My shop said the same thing when I asked them. They said it will eventually lift.

Update: they re-did the panel on the driver side and honestly I'm good with the result. It's now only an exposed corner tip I wouldn't notice unless I know exactly where to look.

I'm considering these guys for PPF and other small mods. What was their quote?
At Bulletproof Auto Spa full car XPEL gloss PPF was $7,495 for my Taycan GTS ST. Front end only (front bumper, hood, front fenders, side mirror faces) would have been $2,695. I also had them do full paint correction and ceramic coating on top of the PPF. They do great work! Highly recommended.

HTH!

If they cant do a better job on those corners, Id like to see their results when they do a color-change wrap, it makes no sense to see all those white corner-tips when they wrap a white car in black ppf :)
