Yup, take it back and get the small issues fixed. Badging on the rear seems to be off a little bit as well.

How's the orange peel? Could you take any close-up shots?

Easy fix though... Just Debadge it and it will look great. I agree with having the rear window paint chips fixed. As they say, "A stitch in time will save nine..."

The car looks much better new...

badge screw up is common with body shops, thats no biggie, the paint around the window is the concern.

unless the badge pulls the paint off.

That's a $9,000 job. Even if you subtract $1500 for other items like headlights, taillights etc... I think your insurance still overpaid

Interesting. The paint job was worth more than his car. Looks nice as hell though.
