Did you go over the side stripes or remove & replace ,I talked to a couple high-end shops that do this before having this one do it and they both suggested it's always best to remove & replace them on top of the Ppf for the cleanest look,if you can get them.Bmf Dan was able to get a set so they removed them after taking careful measurements and pictures for replacement. I actually ordered a second set to keep on the shelf if I ever had to replace the PPF, which I was told if we went over the sides stripe and you tried to remove the PPF years down the road it would remove the stripes with it anyway.Here's a few pics of the process should be done next week then they're gonna ceramic coat the PPF. and I must say it does looks kind of cool without the side stripes .
