Your panels are to close together. Make them fix it and pay for the re coating

That and clearly misaligned. Definitely a dealer repair issue unfortunately.

I have to ask the question are people not looking over the car before taking it from the dealer? Something like this can't be missed if one is looking over the car properly. Don't take the car unless it is up to your standard.

You can see in the photo the ppf doesn’t go to the edge, there’s probably an 1/8” -1/4” gap between the edge of the film & edge of the panel.

That's what I initially thought too and posted on here to confirm but everyone else's comments make sense especially since there is a tsb on it, installer also sent me a photo that it was there before install just smaller and it's still pretty small
