Ok, we all know about my little experience with the fender bender. I got it back from the body shop a couple weeks ago, but there was dirt in the paint. I took it back and they agreed to color sand and buff it to fix. I picked it up yesterday. In the places where the dirt was, there are now "fisheyes". These guys are being really nice, and I don't want to be a jerk, but I DO want my car back to factory paint conditions...How would ya'll handle this?

1.) Go in and demand a repaint?

2.) Allow them to fix the way they want to?

3.) Take it to another shop to fix since they already had twice to get it right, then send them the bill?

4.) Your suggestion...

take it back

the leftover 'fisheyes' are actually where they tried to scrape, sand and polish the dirt. it's really hard to paint without some dirt, but accessive dirt is unacceptable. they should have pride in there work, any of my friends who work on black beauty know that everyone will be critiqueing (is that how it's spelled?) the results.
and even I'm not as brutal :flag
