depends on the prep work to get the paint to stick...Not to critic' but they could've masked a lot better, look at the first pic, through the "brake vent" hole.. this shows what happens at most production paint shops...attention is not on the payroll if you catch my drift. also look at the mouldings around the headlights, taillights, and reverse lights.
I'm not trying to be an a--hole but if they worked at my shop I would can them like tuna. Personally, I would go and raise hell to the manager, I know I would want my customers to tell me when crap like this happens so I could take the proper actions to prevent it from happening again. the kit looks good from what I can see, but watch that paint. sorry if I popped your bubble, I just hate to see when someone gets lazy with the masking tape....What if it was their car getting painted? I can almost guarantee it would have a better tape up before it went in the booth.
