Absolutely beautiful! Nice debadge, and nice clear film install! How long does the film generally last and what's the evidence that it needs to be removed/replaced?

DetailersDomain

thanks! depending on how you take care of it I would have seen 2 years and I have seen 5 years.



it will dull out and some older films will get yellow.

StrikeEagle

Wow, that long?? Incredible. Do rocks cause holes in it in the unfortunate even that you get hit by one?

DetailersDomain

anything is possible but I haven't seen rocks cut thru clear film.



a sharp object or a bump from another car can tear it
