Sorry to hear about your issue, same happened on my car, which has been determined to be a factory paint job:

Installer did nothing, other than offering a few words of condolence!! Porsche did nothing since the car is out of warranty, now I am left with fixing it for myself!

i agree 99', if i had to do it all over again, i would have gone with the guy who quoted me $500 more than the installer i used, it would have saved me the nerve racking part of getting the hood redone.
the film they use today is incredible, when its applied properly and has no watermarking or irregularities, it is truly invisible.
tip: at a local marine store, pick up Plexus, pricey, but it is awesome to use on clearbras to clean and protect them. Typically used on plastic windscreens that enclose fly-bridges on boats.

My guess is they did not use a hair dryer, or did not get that area warm enough and it pulled off the paint.
Fun to hear the body shop is blaming the paint on the car for their mis-hap.

So yesturday, my installer was removing the clear bra and reinstalling a new one (the first one he put on had too many lines so he offered to fix it) on my 997.2 and in the process took some of the clear coat off. At first, he started to blame the fact that the bumper was not factory paint etc and thats why this happened...He saw that I was getting really annoyed so he offered to take it to his body shop to have it re-sprayed while I am on a business trip!
So luckily he is getting it fixed but he said I wont be able to put the clear bra back on for a couple weeks until the paint settles. Now I just hope the car doesnt get damaged more while I am on my business trip at the body shop (i.e. door dings) since I obviously have bad luck. You guys think I should call this body shop and warn them to keep the car somewhere on their lots where it wont get more damaged? I dont know anything about this body shop but supposingly he works on a lot of Porsches.
