Maybe someone knows what's wrong with my 1 week old tint?

Did you let the windows down within 48 hours of tinting? That will do it.

nope. I kept the windows rolled up for 6 days.
Left it baking in the California sun.

It looks more like the film was heated after it was applied and not when the pattern was on the outside of the window. It dries the film out and leaves marks a lot of the time when done like that.
