Subpar workmanship. Incomplete work. Imperfections in paint still exists after returning the vehicle paint correction.
You'd be smart to have your repairs done elsewhere.

The work on my car was excellent, looked like new! They even fixed a couple of additional paint scratches that existed prior to the accident. Returned my vehicle to me washed, vacuumed and the dash dusted!
