Like an expectant father, when you get it back all well and good, you can go whet the baby's head !;)
Good luck with it.

Plenty of other things just as important to look for than a poor colour blend and much more likely.

Poor masking if they don't remove trim. Orange peel. Trapped dust. Sanding marks. Overspray on wheel liners.

Honestly, I don't think you'll get it with those guys. But I have seen all of that, on 1 car, from a BMW dealer paintshop. As well as being the default from some cr*ppy bodyshops.

I just hope that it looks as good as the Jaguar I parked alongside this morning! They had done a cracking job on that!

There you go. Can't get a better recommendation than that. But don't be frightened to have a look close up before you pay. Even a good bodyshop can make an honest mistake, even if QC means it should never get through.
