Some companies can use computerized templates to cut the product to the shape of the headlight or bumper, but wouldn't it be ideal to have film that is already molded to the shape of the product? Something that is 3D versus 2D, so the wrinkles are far less likely to happen. This seems like it could be done. Just saying.
