Default Just got my Lemans stripes, theres wrinkles (PICS)

I just recieved my white lemans stripe from americanmuscle.com, when i opened the box up and looked at the stripes i noticed some wrinkles and bubble edges on it. Will they smooth out when i put them on or do i need to return them and get new ones?Thanks

The pic is not the best. There is way too much glare coming off the stripes.

I suggest you take a couple more pics, because that looks like a picture of a paper plate close up!

Actually when you apply them to your car, just warm them up a bit with a hairdryer and they should come right out. Also only use distilled water when you apply them(no soap) Soap causes bubbles

If the wrinkle is like a sharp crease then it won't come out. I don't know about the bubbles though.

I had bubbles in mine and hairdryer worked fine. If you use a heatgun be careful you dont burn the paint.

if you just received the stripes then why does the photo have the date Jan 13,2006 in the corner?
