My mustang got into an accident and I got it back yesterday (12-31-04) from the auto repair shop. The left finder, fronth bumper cover, left headlight, and grill were damaged. The shop replaced those parts but when they were paint the stang they also painted the hood(I didn't ask for this but there was some paint missing from the side of the hood that you couldn't see from outside but it's fine since I plan on replacing it.) They told me when I picked it up that they repainted it since it had some chips in it(true) but when I came home I noticed that they also painted the right fender too. Why? They didn't mention it to me. Why would they do that. My parents said they did that to match with the new painted parts but why because it's a newer car 03 yellow car so there wouldn't be a big difference. I think they damaged that fender or they got the wrong paint and they noticed something wrong with it. What do you guys think? Am I going insane?

Best not to worry about it, if they damaged it while replacing the other one.. who cares? its fixed now... no dents or anything right?

You are worrying too much. The sprayed the other fender to blend and match it. You would be able to tell a difference if they did not do that.

it's called blending. that's a good thing... if they didn't blend it, results look bad.

I guess you guys are right...thanks! If I knew they were going to paint the right fender then I would have also told them to get rid of the antena...oh well next time.
