Any thoughts if those spots will go away? They seem to be from the soapy water. i.e. suds
If I had to do it again??? Probably, and now that I've done it, not as hard, but the funky curves make it harder.

When the residual liquid evaporated on mine it all went away. The fit is very good, but I have one section on the drivers side/top of the bumper, right next to the headlight where he obviously had to do some stretching, or the material stuck together. Look closely in the light at an angle and you can see a few lines and a stretch mark. I am a perfectionist, but feel like I might be too much of an a** hole to demand he take it off and put on a new one. I was under the impression from what I read and the installers comments, that small lines from wrinkles or stretching would even out over time from sitting in the sun like my car does during the daytime at work. So far, hasn't gone away. It still looks 10 times better than the chips I had all over my 2006 Z though. I have only one spot under the bottom lip that you can't see unless you get down on your knees and look under the car, where a large rock obviously hit the bumper and stretched the material slightly. If it still looks this good a year from now it will be worth it. As far as the few wrinkle lines, I just keep telling myself it is not permanent, will come off with the bra when removed.
