Wow, thats pretty dodgy. I've done some panelbeating before as my ex was a panelbeater and even my attempt wasnt that bad.
I can't believe a shop would let the car leave in that state.
Usually a painter wont paint the car if its not done well and then the panel beater has to clean it ready for the customer and fit it after its all been painted. A bit sad to see it has gotten to the customer without someone noticing and doing something about it.

If you skip through to page 6, post 108 i think it was, there's another car in the shop when they pick it up, just as bad, and they show you a paint cupboard left open and stuff.

Worst Ever.

I painted ( with help from my uncle ) My S13. No Orange peel, no runs. I left a few parts a bit light (buffed through when i hit it with the buffer) , but it was my first time i'd ever touched a gun.

Yeah ! If you dropped all the over fenders he is nicely and evenly drilled into place, you rekon you could fix the shit underneath it ?

And how hard would it be to get all the overspray off the actual car itself ? could buffing work or a very fine 1600-1800 rub back ?
