I see it, the fender is brighter, less yellow, than the door/quarter panel.

Basically they didn't blend ****. From what I can see bumper was painted and fender. Willing to bet money hood was not blended into either..


Do you know what kind of ppg paint they are using

i do see a bit darker finishes on the bumper to fender, sometimes angles take a big part of how things work and lighting too, another thing you could do before you take it to sewell infiniti, get some painters tape and make a square of the area of which you can see the difference. make it big enough like 4x4 and tape a good amount on the ends (want a nice looking frame that will not let the eye focus out of the square)

Never ever ever ever let insurance take you car to service king. You always have the choice where it goes.. I'd go to new concepts in plano

Body work isn't easy. Painting is an art, clearly the shop is not a good one to use. Was this shop recommended by your insurance company? Always be aware of those recommendations these shops are mostly interested in fast in and out. Take it to a good body shop and see if they have any solutions. Then discuss them with your insurance company.

Also, did you insist that they not use "after market" parts and that you wanted genuine Infiniti parts? The paint may not be properly adhering to the after market parts or the paint may be the wrong color. Good adhesion is a result of good prep work.

Also, if the accident was not your fault you may be able to get something called "deminished value" from them.

The door and a pillar were NOT blended at all dude sorry to say, take this **** back to them and have them repaint because that is UNACCEPTABLE.


If it was blended there wouldn't be such a drastic change in color. That's the dead giveaway.

Copy my post and show this to the shop.


This, its pretty obvious in the first picture
