I must agree on that...I installed one side and removed it because I left a lot of bubbles and amber doesn't look so bad on a white car. I think darker color car makes the amber more noticeable.

Just peel it of and use some Goo Gone and you'll be fine.

Seriously you cannot pay enough to take off the red-outs. IMO that is the best mod I have done to date.

the bubbles eventually go away. like when you tint your windows you are going to have a few bubbles, but they should go away in like 3-4 days.

Should have used some soap water when installing the redouts. Help eliminates the bubbles.
