Paintwork problems

1996 SL 500....Now with shiny pedals
Have had my front bumper repainted along with a dent removed and repaint to the NSR wheel arch (that might have happened when I reversed one of our other vehicles into my SL!) but am most disappointed with the result. The bumper paint has cracked in two areas (?not enough/not well mixed additive) and, whilst the dent has been removed very nicely, the paint finish is awful. Really quite p****d off as the body man came on a recommend from a friend. Have had the work done while I've been away, so I reckon it's fair that I give him a roasting when he opens Monday. One of the worst things is that they have knocked the paint back below the NSR light cluster and have missed to polish it back in. Just reeks of wanting to get the job done in a hurry. Got the car back on Friday and I know that the guy was going on holiday the next day...........
