Paint Protection Film Gone Wrong - 997 Turbo Cab

With a few exceptions, no one is putting the film on for the sake of how the film looks (other than those who wrap a car). So if you are lucky enough to wonder "why", then you don't need it.

3 minutes after leaving the dealer while the paint was still hot from the sun i pulled off the side OEM pieces of clear bra... HATE THEM! always discolor.. i wish i could peel off around the bottom of the car where they put the texture spray cause that yellows as well

tacky?
ahhhh! one of the forums worst and most inaccurate references to something that has been done on cars for years.... give me break, can spot a car from 100X feet away with it? You must be a super hero.......................
Get it done by a hack and see the results posted here, get it done by a reputable installer and you will have a nice result....

Not surprised, but there are razor cuts. For those questioning, this was a precut kit applied to this Turbo before we got our hands on it. Custom or precut, there is a risk of such damage if the applicator is lacking experience / skill.

I have decided with White paint to not do the film the car. I was always dissapointed
in the dulling of the paint from the film. Plus what is the long term effects.
Has any one pulled off the film after 4 years? What hapens then.
If I had a dark car (black blue dark silver) I would still do the film.
White makes a lot better paint for no film. I just wax the crap out of it.

That's some pretty bad work. Good thing the guy found you guys to fix what the other guy couldn't do! Look forward to seeing what it looks like after the fix. Great job as always Premier.

The rear panels are easily replaced with film that will not yellow.
Had my turbo about a week before I had the dealer redo them. They are not the same thicker film used on the front ends of many vehicles, and are both thinner and clearer.
Though not a big film fan, that is one spot I can live with. Rejexed right over it, all is well with the world.

wow, that is way better then a precut. Too bad you guys are so damn far away from New York! I should've brought mine over to get the front bumper redone when I had it in SF

Yup, that looks exactly like how you guys did my Pcars. Premier has worked on 5 or 6 of my cars (can't remember) and countless friends / relatives. All praise them with high marks. Premier rocks!!!
