Can you folks that went with Xpel tell me if you have seams at the same locations I marked with Blue Tape.

I think I should have listened to member advice and gone with Xpel, but I didn't want to hassle with trying to get a refund out of the dealer.

The seams near the top of the kidney grills really bug me. I think it's going to be a total headache to keep dirt out of the crack between the two sections of material. It's also peeling back in a couple of the compound corners.
This is what the XPEL pre-cut kit appears to look like, pulled right from out website: XPEL M2 Kit, it doesn't appear to have the seam above the kidney grills. Would you mind sending us a PM with your installer? I've attached the pre-cut kit image, and you can see the cut outs. regarding the lifting film, take it back to the installer and have him trim or get that fixed before dirt and debris starts to get underneath.

The bottom pieces of the kit are made to have seams, so that they can be replaced if you have any bad impacts or road debris. That way the entire bumper doesn't have to be redone, and you can have those 3 small pieces replaced individually, the rest of the seams on the lower half of the bumper are due to the intricate design on the bumper, since the film has to stretch over all the compound curves.
