Post GOT MY CAR BACK

Hey guys,

I got my car back, unfortuneately, My computer is not working so ill post pictures if you guys want to see it. 1.5 long montths in the shop, but finally its out equipped with inpires and comptechs exhalers. I noticed that the paint on the enges (ie sides of doors and stuff) is ruff, perhaps they haven't painted it??? and on one corner, the clearcoat is dripping and has dried. is it something to worry about? thanks guys

Why was it in the shop? Accident or just lots of upgrades?

They need to buff out the car. The rough edges and dripping clear coat can all be buffed out. You need to bring it back to the shop and let me know about it.

It's recommended to professionally wet-sand the car before a buff...this way any dimples roughness or drip marks will be removed..
