Looking at that car in hi res, I've seen better end results on Nissans done by 15 year olds in their back yard.

The hood sits lower than the fenders. The headlights are not aligned.

The front bumper cover was not filled and sanded to get a nice body line.

I am not skilled with body work, there are reasons my cars are stock.

I seriously hope that was a not paid professional job to fix it. If so, there should be a refund.

What do you expect from a salvage title repair by someone looking to flip it for a quick profit? If you think the outside is bad, what you don't see underneath is probably a lot worse.

Also what do you expect from someone wanting to be disingenuous.
Its like worrying about the scar from implant surgery as opposed to the bosom that bears no fruit.

If you never expect anything from anyone, you'll never be disappointed. And stop worrying.
