Nismo rear bumper repair

[tjlazer]

Hi guys, I had a very small mishap with my rear Nismo bumper a few weeks ago, got a small 3" scrape on the rear bumper lip. Had a body shop do the repair and I was hoping it would of turned out better. They did a pretty good job and the paint is perfect, but there is still a little deformity where the lip got pushed in a little when it scraped. You can still see where the scrape happened.

Is this something I should just live with or should I complain? I paid $390 to fix this and it makes me mad paying for a job and it not turning out right. Maybe I am being too picky, and I realize this lower lip is kind of hard to get fixed perfectly vs a flat surface.

Is it possible to shave and get that top lip perfect though? I am trying to be reasonable and it would seem it might be a little hard to get it perfect.

All I can say if my boss saw that while sitting on the ready line he would have my azz.
