i had the 3m carbon fiber vinyl put on my hood by a professional almost 2 years ago. After about a year it looked terrible as it was going white on the edges. (probably from the car wax) and from the engine heat the corners where warped i tried my best to keep it away from the elements as well and i tried to remove it and it ended up ruining my hood paint so i don't think i would do it again. My avatar is what my EG used to look like
Did you use a hair dryer when trying to remove the film?
