We rarely do window perfs, but had one that was on a Dodge Intrepid back window. Wasn't satisfied with the outcome with it wanting to bunch up in the corners. Is there a good material to use for these types of windows or should you just not do them? We had installed printed window perf and a clear overlaminate as I was told you must laminate to avoid water pockets in the perf. Probably less of an issue with SUV back windows. Is there a window perf better suited for this type of car or should we refuse to do perf other than flat glass panels? Appreciate any feedback!

Id use clear focus, I tried an off brand and had to redo 3 windows including 1 flat truck window. I did a mustang (02), a cavalier (04), and a couple of other small compound curve imports. I used to tint windows so I am familiar with layouts and curves. So far the clear focus is the best I have used hands down.

cast perf and cast laminate. they make calendered, don't buy it for the rear windows, that's what it does. The cast stuff is way more expensive.

Geedub is right, but make sure your laminate is "optically clear". With regular cast lam, the adhesive can give a "cloudy" look to your print, especially over the perfs.
