Default For Those w/ Venture-shield Installed

If you read my other post, you know I just bought a Z on Sunday and it's already giving me trouble....

To add insult to injury, my venture-shield started to peel at the rocker panels in the rain today. I called the installer and he told me I should have left the car in his heated garage overnight (something he failed to mention to me when I told him I would pick up the car the afternoon of installation). I started to inspect more of his work and noticed there are seams on the front bumper where there is a break in coverage (in some areas as much as 1/4") He told me this was normal as there was no way to completely wrap the bumper--now I have my doubts. The edges that peeled off the rocker panels looked serrated like they were cut with a scissor (granted they were hidden under the car but this gives me an idea of this guys workmanship)

For those of you who have ventureshield, are there any gaps in coverage on your bumper or is it covered in one piece? There is also an area where the bumper meets the fender where dirty water has seeped under the plastic. This installer is "certified", I got him right from ventureshield's website... Are my expectations too high, or is this a crap installation?

I don't even have the car for a week and I'm ready to strangle someone.
