Default 2000 Camaro SS driver side rear damage before and after, I need your input.

I was hit while parked. After it has now been repaired by a Hendrick body shop through Nationwide's claims associated body shop program I am extremely disappointed. They charged nationwide 2000 dollars for this work. Please tell me if you think I should be as mad as I am or if I am over reacting. I was pretty much chastised by the Hendrick worker. "We did not get paid to blend the paint"
They left a cup on my trunk twice and I said how can you treat my car like this? He said look it wiped right off.

I wouldn't be dealing with this shop myself. I'd let my insurance deal with them. Definitely looks unsatisfactory IMO.

Great, I myself believe it was unsatisfactory and that they did not even wash the car. But they left dried wax on it the day it was painted. I have called the insurance of the person's it is being paid through. I really hope they see what I see.

Nationwide was not on your side. I'd call them and rant and rave

I don't know what was done, but if the car is straight black, even with metallic in it, most insurance companies will not pay blend time. Black is the only color we can't get blend time on. Still doesn't excuse the waves in the bumper and someone mistreating the car by using it as a cup holder.

They told me black does not get blend time, kind of upsetting. It does not match

your original paint is in tough shape, so not really a good comparison

plus insurance companies are legal scammers and low ball body shops

I agree. And that repair is terrible.
