It was on purpose: I choose the angle to have this effect which is the best way to show defects.

when the display is on, you can’t see any light reflection …

Looks great. Are you happy with the edges, are they rough? Thanks!
I believe the climate control panel is plastic and agree with protecting it from scratches. However, I thought the center infotainment panel was made of glass and therefore less likely to scratch. Am I mistaken?

The front climate panel looks like glass as well… but can’t say if it’s actually glass.
The risk with those panels/screen is linked to jewelry, especially rings IMO.

Edges are a bit too sharp, but cuts/size are perfect.
Pictures I’ve provided look like in the flesh, so if you like them, you’ll like in real life…

Screen protect done by the PPF installer. The matt film looks nice, and is smudge free.
He did these free of cost :)
Wow -- this looks nice. I love the anti-glare more for the fingerprint improvement even more than reflections. I elected not to do PPF (leased vehicle)....but I'd definitely pay for this.

And for the curved piano black part under the climate control panel, a wrap with vinyl transparent film?
the curved part was pretty swirled after my car was in for service. They were diagnosing the AC and seemed to be touching that area a lot.

as for the center display, i just kept the factory protective film on it, the peel tab is separate so you can just remove the tab and have a free protective film on it.
