The first time I had the kit installed, the piece on the bumper was coming up on the top part of the bumper (see picture). The installer ripped off the first set of kits (there were also lines in the hood kit) and put on another set (no problems w/ the headlight kit). Now, it looks like the film is coming up again. I was just wondering if any of you have had problems like this.

I just checked the custom (not a kit) ClearBra installation on my car. They cut the film right down the middle of where it has separated in your picture. It seems like a reasonable approach and I'd not noticed this before. So you could do this too. Another option would be to use a trick the ClearBra installer told me about. Heat the film with a hair dryer (this will make the film more flexible, be careful not to melt it!) and then push it back onto the body. What you don't want to have happen is water and dust to get on the back of the film. It'll never re-adhere then.

If this doesn't work, take it back to the installer, they'll fix it for you.

 

My installer had problems with the kit in that spot and down low where the bodywork folds into the foglight/oil cooler openings. In your headlight spot he used a little heat to stretch the material and also trimmed the curved area in a little bit deeper. Looks fine now.

 

I tried the hair dryer technique on the first one (didn't work). I may try cutting it. I'll probably just call the installer and see what he has to say...

 

how did he fix the lifting by the light?

 

the first time he replaced the piece (there were other errors). I haven't had him fix it a 2nd time yet.

 

hope the PM i sent you will help you in the future. btw, he replaced the whole bumper because of that lifting?
