2017 Porsche Macan Clear Bra Question?

Looking for someone in the TriState Area that can wrap a Macan Hood with one sheet of film vs side cuts? Anyone really good that has skills and doesn't cut corners? I have tried my previous installers and none will do it. Thoughts?

Some installers have been successful wrapping the hoods with one piece, but at that point, the film is being stretched very thin. It's something we would highly recommend NOT doing with one piece of film. The seams are necessary to keep the film tension lower. When the film is stretched so much to wrap those edges, there are chances the film can crack/rip and then the bra would have to be reinstalled.
