[QUOTE="roybot, post: 1126536, member: 14621"] I have PPF (Expel) on my whole front clip. Not done by my dealership but by a private shop that does this stuff. They likely have a prepatterned template that gets laser cut out of a huge sheet. It already has the seams because as stretchy as this stuff is, it can't conform to every bump or groove. So, yes my truck has similar seams but in different places because I have a Gen 1. I think that people saying that they haven't seen this before are probably talking about vinyl wrap which I believe is much thinner and more stretchable. Good PPF is actually pretty thick and does a great job at protecting your paint. Offers me SO much peace of mind. Bottomline is that yes, I think it is supposed to look like that. You may be able to find someone who can custom cut it (meaning they will get a huge sheet and cut it with a razor blade while it is on your truck, they could probably make the seams look tighter...but would prob cost more.
