Whilst having my car serviced One of the items on my snag list was that the factory paint finish on the front wings wasn't up to scratch. (i.e. faint line can be seen) I have now been told that to fix this a complete front respray is being done. Has anyone experienced this and what was the finish like afterwards. Could you notice where the old and new started/stopped.
I have complete faith in my dealer (castle) but just wondered if anyone else had had similar work carried out.

Many thanks,
just one other thing- anyone think it's a good idea to extend warranty from year one? Especially with all the speculation regarding the speed six engine. Castle quoted me approx £750.00 for year two.
I know the engine is covered for 2 years but not everything else.

Nick
that is identical to mine, although I had it on both wings. This is fully covered under warranty.


I also needed the doors realigned and they are fixing the paint on that too.
Also slight scratches on laquer coat on boot so that is being sorted too.
