I tried to apply the shadowline window trim 2 my car and everytime i try it gets these deep wrinkles in some spots that wont come out. Does anybody know how to avoid that from happening?

A heat gun or blowdryer to stretch out the wrinkles. Also helps to have a squeegee (felt/soft tip).

sounds like you might be trying to apply too much at once. go slowly and that should prevent ALMOST all the wrinkling...the curves, just use a heat gun on super low and apply slowly again.
