Guys
Just want your opinion on the job I got done on my arches, I personally am not happy with it and looking at taking it back to the people that did it or speak with someone who might be able to fix it.
Basically they have rolled the arch but it has pushed the arch out a bit and the back near the rear bumper and that seems to have put stress on the quater panel and transferred the stress further down the panel and caused it to get pushed in slightly making it look like a dent
You can see from the pic the arch in the red square is sitting out further than it should

In this picture you can see in the red square the panel looks like it is pushed in, you can actually see the reflection off the red sign in the shop window which doesnt look right

This is the same panel just taken from the front

This is the bottom off the arch and is the same on both sides, the arch comes back out to meet the original line then goes back in again which has caused the paint to crack.

What do you guys think, I though I was just being a bit too fussy at start but when I showed it to someone else they agreed with me. I wont namethe shop that did it but they deal with custom fab work all the time so something like this should have been a walk in the park.
