Weird ACURA lettering *pics*

Well i took my car to the body shop because my trunk had been vandilized. It had to be repainted and all. My dad picked it up for me. When i got home the trunk looked weird. Heres a pic.

What do ya'll think. Should i take it back to the shop to have them fix it or should i leave it. I think it looks kinda cool. Let me know what you all think.

Personally, the closely spaced lettering cries out REPAINT, aka ACCIDENT. If it was me, I'd have it fixed or just remove them for that clean, custom look.

The lettering is from the TL. I like it....you should have them respace it.

I don't get it? What's the difference? I guess I don't look at the back of my car often enough

I know it wasn't black chrome....just that's the look I want....and yeah it does look crooked...but just have to use a bit of tape to make sure it's even when I put it on.
