This stinks but I believe your view of the situation is the right one.

Take your losses and move on; not worth the aggravation.

Not all bodyshop owners are bad.
I have worked at many shops in my lifetime, and have dealt with alot of crooks. The last person I worked for had a nationally known restoration shop and was the worst person I have worked for. He was selling customers parts and charging customers for parts he said were bad. He even went so far as to change the VIN numbers on cars to tell people they were getting a car they actual were'nt.

I had enough of people like that so I decided to start my own business and wont let a car leave until it is right. But as good as anybody could be mistakes can still happen, even the best shops have comebacks. When I deal with people that spend alot of money on their car, the general demand a first rate job, which I am happy to provide.

There are plenty of good quality shops around, and defenitly a few in my area. All of which helps me because it makes you strive for perfection to be above the rest.

If I were you Belle306, I would demand the problem fixed,since you did say the problem was not being sanded. That would eliminate a paint default, but would indicate that whoever prepped the part did not do a good enough job. If you spent any amount of money it still needs to be corrected on their part.

Just my opinion,
Mike
