You could ask the dealer to leaving the shipping wrap on.

 

Sure...I'll use a Navy Surplus periscope

 

So the film goes all the way to the top corners of the hood, at the base of the A-Pillar? Or is there a small void of material there?

 

No voids anywhere on the entire hood. One seamless piece of Xpel ultimate, with the edges wrapped. The entire hood is covered from front leading edge back to the windshield, and from the top of the fender to the top of the other fender. From looking at my installers webpage, I don't think they used a template. Might want to ask your preferred installer in they can do a COMPLETE seamless hood.

 

reaching the windshield isn't the typical issue, the outside corners right behind the side-view mirrors, at the base of the A-Pillar, require another 10" of material.

 

I understand. Don't know how else to say it other than, the ENTIRE hood is covered. No voids, all 1 single piece of film.

I could take picture, but you can't see the film anyway.

 

If you cant see it, how would you know if it isn't there? lol

 

Now I know you're being funny, but this morning I was stupid... While waxing and buffing, I rubbed my belt buckle against the front fender...

It's there. Thank the Lord!
