looks good.. is it the pic or does the red look like a slightly different shade??

THe rest of the car just needs a wash and a wax. the new panels are polished differently so its looks a tidgy bit different.

As for the under light trim, it looks lined up fine, maybe slightly "out" on the outer edge? like it just needs to be tightened a tad.

unless your really look at it, (i had to go look at my own car to check the allignment) then its perfect.

and the work done, its excellent standard :-)

thanks, i will get it a wash and wax. will look at that bit of trim but don't personally see a problem i'm happy with the car and don't see a problem with the cover looks fine to me.

Done quiet a good job of that by looks of it, its amazing what bodyshops can do with dents

if you look really close you will be able to tell but compared to say replacing the rear quater panel and painting the complete side of car your not going to get better for 500 quid,

Just need to give it a week for paint to harden up then get polish out and do all car

if your not majorly fussed about it, then i would ignore it. It looks perfectly acceptable, and within 2 weeks you'll never even notice.

The back of my previous car (03 Cordy) was driven into by a transit van, wrecked both rear quarter panels, the bumper, and shoved the boot lid in and up about 2 inches. No chassis damage. new bumper, and boot lid. and the garage pulled both quarters back, and realligned the boot hinges.

everyone who saw the before and after reckoned it looked to have never been touched. only reminder was having to be a tiny bit more forceful closing the boot lid, and within a month, i stopped noticing that i was closing it a tad harder than i had been.

well done to the body crew, they've done very well!

OK its just paranoia its happened to me before cause someone scraped my door quite badly and i kept looking at it trying to fine niggles with it no one else knew but i knew it had work done some people are like it i think. and i'm amazed myself at the good job the body shop done i thought the car would maybe have to been a write off and scraped

BTW does anyone know what shade of red my car is?

another note is you have blanked your number plate in all your pics apart from the last one.
