Some errors:
1. The compound concave curves (like the air inlets on the front of the G87) had gaps and lift-offs in the root of the corner. I couldn't get the precut kit to stretch enough and stick in those areas. If I didn't use a precut kit, then it may have worked.
2. I didn't do a good job on the wrap around on the edges. I should have watched more videos on techniques there
3. I picked a terrible time to install it. It was easily over 100 degrees, and I was sweating. Sweat drops caused problems.
This was all acceptable to me because this is a track car and not a show car. If it were a show car, I might consider paying someone to do it for me. From 6' away, everything looks great. You have to get pretty close to see my mistakes.

Interesting.. did you do anymore other than the hood and mirrors? How long that all take you?
