Hey, you're new to the area. You did the best you could to get it done right. No harm, just a little speedbump.
I'd just remove it again, clean up these imperfections myself. (think of the paint on there now as a really good sealer) prep it completely myself, and find the right guy. All good.
I also noticed in the pic of the lip on the paint stand that it was lying on it's back.
I always understood that parts that sit on the car vertically (like doors) should be painted oriented that way, and parts that lay flat (parallel to the ground....like a hood) be painted lying flat. The lip should be 'standing' up as though it was on the car when getting paint applied.

Looking forward to seeing the final results.
