On the hood I don't like how the pattern changes angle (sweeps back) without relationship to the crease on the hood.
IMO the changes in angle should occour right on the crease line.
Also I don't like how the fender only gets 50% vertical coverage (on the bottom).
I had the installer add a 2nd "custom cut" piece to get 100% vertical coverage (up to the hood).
IMO fender should have 100% vertical coverage not 50%.
Having to add the 2nd upper piece creates an unecessary seam.
My installer was so lame, he did not even match this ( custom cut) piece up with the hood coverage.
I also hate how the mirrors only get 75% coverage.
They lack coverage for the last 2" of the top and outer edges.
IMO the mirrors should get full coverage (the contour is simple)
I also don't like the big gap in coverage around the foglights.
This part I might understand as bieng too difficult, due to the complex bends.
IMO they could have done a little better.
The installer just defered to the pattern designer, as if some real thought & research was put into it.
IMO a drunken monkey designed that pattern.

(at least the hood, fenders & mirror anyway).
