*Ahem*....Those are not "better" pics. Nobody can tell jack from those tiny little pictures. You need to repost them to fill the screen, or have the ability to see a larger version from a smaller posted pic.

what came out wrong? would a 2000 then 3000 grit and hand glaze take care of it?

Good luck with "getting some of your money back". I'm sure whoever did it would be happy to wet sand and buff a few spots.

Looks good though.

how would i be able to post a bigger pic? i took the pic from my phone.

car looks good from 5 ft away. but up close you can easily pic it apart.the front bumper is a different shade, the LF lower fender is a different shade from a spot i had them fix. the paint overall isnt too bad but the prep work is what im not satisfied with.

the front bumper had a saleen ground effect on it, so the front bumper was pulled off to fix the holes and was painted. but i think that was painted first then the rest of the car painted. but i dont know how the process was done. i do know the front bumper was black so im thinking that the color soaked through the primer causing the difference in color or it wasnt primed at all and just painted, but like i said i dont know how it was done.
