Is it better to cut out and remove the ppf on top of the camera housing? I see that you left the ppf over the side camera.

I have a full wrap for the entire car and the sensors are covered and work just fine. Why not cover the sensors?
@wrapid97062 жыл бұрын
Hey! Because of the shifting rubber around sensors, it tends to get dirt and water from behind the bumper over time. The sensors will work fine but dirt will eventually build up and look bad over time.

Very nice work! I’ve seen several of these Tesla front bumper installs. You make it look easy but I’m sure it’s not. I would guess the approach for a first timer should be slow and patience with lots of soapy water, correct? I would think a beginner would tend to panic if things aren’t looking right instead of simply peeling it back and spraying it and trying again is this also a correct observation? If you keep the PPF wet can you keep working it for as long as it takes or will it tend to start stretching, drying, etc?
@wrapid97062 жыл бұрын
For sure slow and patience is key. I wouldn’t use too much soap as then you’ll be fighting it sticking. That’s correct as long as it’s wet you can still work on it

@wrapid97062 жыл бұрын
No need to wax the vehicle ahead of time and we just use our sprayer. If the dirt is really in there, I would get some baby shampoo and put it directly on the dirt and rub it out, once it’s clean just rinse the soap off with your slip solution or water

I consider myself pretty handy person and I do not recommend people from doing this unless they have good experience(especially if you’ve purchased a pre-cut kit). Just pay a professional to do it. It’s just not worth it. The video makes it fairly easy to accomplish this, but it’s not that easy. If I had to really do this again, I would buy bulk and cut it myself. Buying a pre-cut PPF limits what you can do and you have to stretch different parts of the bumper just to get the alignments correct. Getting the parking sensor all aligned was such PIA! If i had a bulk PPF, i wouldn’t have to stretch it as much and I would have a lot more free pay with it-ultimately making things much easier to apply.
