[QUOTE="CobraFast1, post: 15386985, member: 181546"] Actually, you might want to rethink having it fixed. This is normal for a stripe job. If you don't have the slight gap, vibration of the spoiler or other components will eventually make the vinyl pick up and peel back. If on the front lower bumper, the vinyl goes under the black grill border; vibration and wind erosion will fray it where they touch. I talked with many stripers, as I'm doing racing stripes on my 2016 GT and they all said the same thing. If you want a seamless job, better consider painting and removing the spoiler and front and rear bumpers for painting. It requires painting the stripes, then clear coating the entire panel for each to make it look right. I was estimated a cost of $2,200 for the paint method by two reputable collision shops that do this type of work. Vinyl is about 1/4 the cost. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
