There would be a steel-toed boot lodged in the shop owner's colon.

People pay money for this kind of work!?@#

I guess this shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. Lack of workmanship seems to be everywhere these days. We recently had our car into the body shop for a crumpled fender as a result of someone backing into it.

Upon completion, steering wheel was off and had to be realigned. Tire pressure was not consistent all around (1 tire was R&R due to wheel refinishing). An applique was not reinstalled behind a splash guard. Underside of fender was not coated with rocker panel protectant (prevents rock chips from damaging underside, present from the factory). It's amazing all these details got messed up given how simple the repair was. I think it'd probably be a good idea to check lug nut torque just in case.
