Now the first time around, the panel shop took it upon themselves to apply stone gaurd spray to the sills (as you normally would) except, they got a bit carried away and put the stone gaurd all the way up onto the "doors".
In the pic below, the BLUE arrow shows the height they sprayed stonegaurd to up the side of the car, they then painted the white over it before i saw it, not only that, the mask line for the stonegaurd was not straight, and in some places went higher up the door.
On seeing this, i expressed my absolute disgust, i said why on earth would they put the stonegaurd higher than factory/standard (how it was before), and if you thought it should be better half way up the door, you could have just "asked" me first before doing it !
As it turned out, about a "week later", they decided to paint the front gaurds and bonnet, now the stonegaurd also gets sprayed on the bottom of the gaurds from factory, but they somehow decided to paint the stonegaurd line "higher" , yes even higher than what was on the doors already, and to top it off, the line was not straight nor met the line on the doors !
At this point i suggested the stonegard needs to be removed as it looks ......errr....very bad ! (i used slightly different words)
Now to fix the stonegaurd, they sanded it all off the doors, i said i wanted it re-applied to the sills as they had not covered the sills properly (where i actually wanted it to go)
When respraying the doors white , they only sprayed half way up each door (instead of spraying the whole door/s) so i now have a paint/blend line about where the body mould goes, you can also see where they did not feather out the sanding line after removing the stonegaurd, and to top it off got paint runs along the bottom of the doors (as shown in the reflection pointed out by the RED arrow below)
