Default bodyshop day today

So today I went down to a body shop here in Las Vegas and got the following things corrected:

NOTE: These issues remained from a previous owner having a minor crash and the work performed was not up to 100% quality workmanship standards that I desire and the car deserves. I have no idea where the previous repairs were done but the Z came from a Bakersfield California dealership originally. Somehow the original owner became out of the picture after or during the repairs and no longer was the owner. The Z then got sold & auctioned /resold to a dealership in LV where I ended up purchasing it 2nd hand.

Work Done

1. I had my rear hatch aligned properly.
2. I also had a very small paint run on the left side of the hatch color
sanded/buffed and now the affected area no longer has any sign of a paint
run.
3. One of two of the side rockers (driver side) had been replaced but the inner
fender well was not blocked off. That now has been corrected and is now
identical to the other original side.
4. Left Front Side Rocker end where the front mud flap installs on the top of
was not properly aligned with the body and was slightly recessed causing
the mud flap to be out of position as compared to the passenger/original
factory positioning. This was re adjusting for correct alignment to body and
now the driver side mud flap/front of rocker body mounting position is
identical to the passenger side.

I'm now happy to say that all mechanical and cosmetic issues that came with the car have now been completely addressed & the result is I now own a slightly used but excellent condition Z inside & out.
