Default vinyl stripes and hoodscoops

Has anyone with vinyl stripes and a hoodscoop experience anissues with the stripes starting to wrinkle under the hoodscoop? I noticed a very small one beginning to form and am looking for a way to prevent this from happening elsewhere around the scoop. Having them removed or painted on are not options.

I had the same issue with my stripes. It just kept getting worse so I finally just had them replaced.

Jito007 - I'm in North Springfield (Annandale)just inside the beltway. Yeah, I can notice a hairline ripple near the base of the scoop. I think it would have been best if they cut an outline around the scoop instead if striping an inch or so under neath it.
