So got my car front PPF (Hood, Bumper, Headlights, Fenders, and Side mirrors) done by this reputable shop according to google (4.9 Stars) on May 4th. Got the car back on May 12th and this was the final product. It was originally supposed to be the 11th but they were late which was very frustrating considering PPF was not put on the headlights, side mirrors, or fenders. I don’t want to deal with this shop ever again because the work was so bad and don’t want to deal with or worry about getting another bad product. Is this fixable if I bring it to a different more reputable shop? Looks like this guy is going downhill, he said he got into a car crash but wants to keep working. I’m scheduled to bring my vehicle in for the PPF check up to make sure everything cured well but i’m not sure I want to ever bring my vehicle back to this guy. Advice? I’m in Socal so if anyone knows a shop please, let me know

Assuming you’ve already paid, options are limited.
If you haven’t paid it’s easy. Go to a new shop and
they’ll start from scratch. Don’t trust online reviews.
Get forum members recommended shops, or go
see them in person.

If you’ve paid, and he won’t fully reimburse you,
you may need to give him the chance to redo
it all. Be clear you will not accept that work.
It’s quite possibly the worst I’ve seen, and
I’ve seen a lot of bad installs.

If you paid using a credit card, dispute the charge as that will give you leverage against this shop.

Funny enough, this is the second time that this shop had the car for PPF work. First time was a nightmare as well and I got a refund, this was completely for free and was supposed to make up for all the hassle. Which only created more hassle lol

In the last pic it looks like your tow hook receptacle is covered over so it can't be used. yikes. You're probably lucky you can open the doors.

Jesus... I would make him take it off and give my money back, without negotiating.
Then, put all those pics on every FB page Google review and instagram account regarding ppf or cars. 2 gipsies in their garage for 3days would have done a better job.
DO NOT ACCEPT This garbage "work"
