There is a clear layer that must be removed after the film is applied. I assume that is what you are referring to? If not, the suface must not have been prepped well enough to allow the sticker adhesive to properly bond to the chrome trim.
My hitch for my R53 came in today and 3 hours later it is installed and the car is all back together. The fit and finish are excellent and I couldn't be happier with the product. The only problem I had is that the instructions mention zip ties and replacement trim mount clips but the little Baggie included in my box was empty. Someone forgot to pop the parts into the bag before tossing the bag into the box. Didn't really effect me because I didn't break any trim tabs and I have PLENTY of zip ties.
Thanks for a great and unique product that makes the ownership of our quirky little MINIs even better.

Aaron Cornaby is the man! I can't say enough good things about him, or his staff. All of my questions were answered in a prompt, professional manner, and Outmotoring has the BEST prices around - I'd know, I'm a penny pincher. They were also kind enough to send me out a part for the coil overs I had ordered to complete them since I ordered the GEN1, instead of the GEN2 - d'oh!
Thanks, dude! You guys ROOOCK!!!

One of the best providers for Mini needs. I easily found the replacement headlight trim and 3rd brake lite and shipping was fast. The light was damaged and they quickly sent a replacement.
