Surely these people can see this? Why would they deliver a car knowing it wasn't correct? The mind boggles.

Did they fit the badge with a hammer? I had similar angst with the repair on my car, I think they must rush the jobs through with the result being that quality suffers! :evil:

Sometimes I think the just chance their luck in the hope that the customer will just accept it!

Unreal....but reality most people won't even look and jump straight back in their car. Good luck getting it sorted, but tbh if that's what they feel is ok they're probably not good enough to do a decent job.
