Thanks. I called them yesterday and I'm waiting to hear back. Not sure if they're gonna be keen to provide a report. Everyone I've spoken to doesn't want to get involved.
Bloody tough situation.

As boschevette said ultimately the repair in fiberglass will show. It simply moves too much.
If it was poorly repaired say by using spray fillers to fill the sanding marks then I reckon you could go back to the repairer.
Also if the painter really turned the heat up in the booth that could make the repair move.
Ive done a lot of repairs on boats both glass and glass covered wood. Over wood the paint always shrinks back showing the woven roving pattern.
Andys restorations on this forum posted a whole section on repairing and painting fiberglass. He would leave each product on for months to harden before moving to the next stage.
Not really practical when a customer wants their car.
