Default 3M peeling/bubbling around mirror edge

I do not mean this to be a post against the shop - the guy did a great install, and was very nice and helpful. The mirror looked perfect when I left, however a day or so later, right at the edges there are some small bubbles and the film is starting to come up a little. I keep trying to push it down and credit card squeegee it out, but it never 100% comes out.

Any one have this issue and work around it? This is the second application on that mirror - not really sure what to do.

"Why don't I take it back?!?!" you say. I'm just seeing if there is another option to driving another 90 miles.

Its the edges I'm most worried about - where its coming up every so often and I can't keep it down.
