Z4C after respray and correction detail

This is my new coupe just back from a front end respray by BMW and a correction detail by James at Ti22 in Newport. A few issues with the respray but in fairness to the dealer they immediately took responsibility and have booked the car back in for further work. A top job by James though, highly recommended! The photos don't really do it justice as they were only taken with my phone, see what you think:

Yep, it will probably need to go back to James again afterwards, it's been booked back in for a week on Wednesday. In terms of costs the respray was £1000 for bonnet, bumper and wings at BMW and the paint correction was £395 for 1.5 days (1 day is £295). I know I could have got the respray cheaper elsewhere but I wanted a top job which I thought BMW would provide (and hopefully will). It also maintains the 12 year paint warranty.
 
Sure, there were a number of "fisheyes" on both wings which are caused by silicon contamination. Nothing particularly unusual apparently but they should be removed during the finishing process so it's going back for further flatting and polishing. James was of the view that the respray itself was pretty good but not enough time and/or care had been taken on the finishing.
