Default Next step?

Hey guys,

I'm new on here - just bought a '12 Certified Pre-Owned 370Z NISMO 7 weeks back. Well, I had an issue with the clutch pedal having a tapping when the pedal was depressed, so I brought it in to have it looked at. The dealership has had the car for 3 weeks and has replaced the clutch assy, throwout bearing, clutch pedal, and just recently the dual mass flywheel. The dual mass flywheel ended up fixing the issue (see thread here with updates about the issue: 370z 6MT Clutch Tapping - Nissan Forums : Nissan Forum). When I went to pick it up today, I found that they dented the plastic side skirt right behind the driver's front wheel. It's gouged in pretty decent in two spots (one right above the other) and they're very obvious. There's also another scuff further back, almost in the dead center of the skirt.

They suggested that they can fix it, but I don't know how it's going to match being Pearl White. I told them that they essentially just bought the car back from me, but I was wondering if it was worthwhile giving them a shot to order a new side skirt and have it painted. I know Pearl White is near impossible to match, so is it worthwhile to even have them try it? I'm ridiculously particular about my cars.

Any/all opinions or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
