I went over to Ryans dads today to get my car on the lift.

He was welding his PPF back together. That thing was worked crack almost completely in half in the middle.

Only about 1" was left. I wish I had my camera I would have taken pics.

Anyone else ever broke theirs?

What would the symptom(s) off a cracked PPF be?
