Default First post and what a bummer!

We had our Chicane yellow 370Z for 600 miles when a guy pulled out of a parallel parking space and clobbered the passenger side rear wheel well and bumper. He said he didn't see us! I thought better of asking him how long he had been legally blind.

I took the car to my dealer's body shop for the $1500 fix. Besides the body work, they had to repaint the passenger door, the passenger rear quarter and the entire bumper.

The body shop finished the car yesterday but I couldn't get there before closing so they sent it to their dealership for my pickup today.

My wife and I took one look at the car and almost fainted. We now have a 2 tone Chicane Yellow Z! The paint did not match by a long shot! Note the repainted areas in the attached photos and see if you can see the difference in the paint.

I refused to take the car but the body shop is closed till Monday AM.

Any suggestions for a civilized discussion with the body shop???
