For this reason I chose to have full coverage, although at a greater expense. Depending on your installer (and how much you're willing to pay), you can either have pre-cut kit installed that runs right up to the edge of the body panels and around orifices/seams, or you can go all out and have the installer custom cut and wrap the edges completely (which may necessitate removing lamps, bages, etc. to get the film underneath).

In Cali and the northeast there are more options as far as installers willing to wrap edges at a reasonable price. In Atlanta the only installer I could find who would wrap all edges wanted over $2000 for the job. I settled for an installer who wrapped all edges on the hood (such that it could pass the 3ft test) and used pre-cut patterns for the full bumper, fenders, A-pillars, mirrors, and roof leading edge. All of the seams are tight enough to my liking, although maybe more **** people still won't like it, but I do find it far, far more attractive than a line running across the front end of the car (not to mention the greater coverage and protection).
