Hi Chaps
I had my S4's chrome wrapped black today and overall they've done a brilliant job. However, there's a couple of really small bits that just aren't as perfect as the rest and it's bugging me a bit, but I'm not sure whether to raise it with them or whether I'm just being a bit too OCD!
Both areas are on the same strip above the drivers door, one looks like it was just trimmed marginally short or the heat has made it shrink back a little too much so from some angles you can still see a sliver of chrome, the other looks like it snagged or kinked slightly when being trimmed and has a small chunk missing. Neither are visible when looking at the car side on and I'm sure only I would ever notice it, but just thought I'd ask opinions
This one is on the A pillar about in line with the wing mirror (which is top left of photo, out of focus). You can't see the exposed chrome from side-on view but can when viewing from the front of the car
This one is above the drivers door looking down, there's the little nick missing in the wrap (left arrow) and also a very light scratch in the paint lacquer about an inch long which looks as though it was caught by a trimming knife. The scratch is hardly noticable as it's almost in behind the trim so not too worried about it really, but can be seen from above if you look down on it.
So, feel free to tell me I'm being overly picky if you think I am! As I said the rest is indistinguishable from OEM black trim and really is a truly excellent job so given that I'd rather not have them label me as a difficult punter should I have any issues down the line that need them to rectify, I don't want to go back if the above is commonplace with wrapping and I'm lucky that they're the only minor flaws, plus both could probably be virtually hidden with a dab of permanent black marker pen! It wasn't the cheapest quote I had though and was done by a very well respected company so if the above is not what you'd expect to see then perhaps I'm not being too harsh!
