Okay, I promised photos, and I'm finally delivering ...
As I said above, the urethane mask is completely invisible, except from behind. Even then, you see only the line formed by the thickness of the material, which is sitting on the paint, and Mike cut that edge as an arc that trails back from the center of the hood to the fenders, so it looks pretty good, even when you can see it.
By the way, I've had the Xpel headlight film on the head and fog lights for about 3 years, now. And that material still looks as good as the day I applied it, so I'm sure the paint film will also be very durable.
Great job, SmartShield! Thanks again.

Looks good Tony. We had this on the FX35 and it was great. Only problem with it was on a white car it would collect a little dirt on the edge so it made the line dark. On the black car you will never see that. Might have to look into it for the Taurus.

Thanks, Jim. I'm very happy with the film and the great job SmartShield did installing it.
Incidentally, this is the new self-repairing Xpel Ultimate film. It's as smooth and glossy as the paint around it. Very nice.
