The wrinkles are standard.They're an aerodynamic feature that helps the front end stick better at speeds over 100 mph.

Just kidding - every wrapped Camaro hood I've seen is like that. The solution is for the Xpel installer to extend the wrap a little past the wrinkles to hold everything in place. That's what they did on mine, and I haven't had any problems.
