I just got mine done a few weeks back and had them redo my hood yesterday because there was some stretching. I saw them pull it off and it came off without any damage to the paint.

My installer did tell me that if the car was repainted then it could rip the paint off if it wasn't painted and cured properly.

BTW, I got a full custom front end wrap on my car and went with 3M film. Here's why;

1. 3M is now on their 4th generation film and is now guarenteed not to yellow.
2. It has a clear coat on the film which actually acts like a factory clear coat and can be treated as such. Therefore can be waxed, polished, clay bar, ect...
3. Other films on the market, though larger in size and easier to install, do not have a clear coat on it and can be rather sensitive to the elements and to the touch. Try it yourself, run your finger accross a section of the film and see what you're left with. It will actually appear like a hairline scratch and if you go in circles, it will look like a swirl.

Cheers!
