Yes, this dealer has many franchises including Nissan and this is his body shop.

It looks like the body shop was trying to BLEND the new paint into the old paint. It also appears that the painter did a poor job using the technique of BLENDING. This is a common practice of body shops when repairing body damage since insurance companies will not pay for a complete (panel - door - fender - etc.) paint job. The bad part about this kind of a repair is, if you polish and wax your car repeatedly like what we do. The repaired area tends to begin to stand out the more we polish and wax.
