Angry sh!tty accident repair

Just got my car back after 3 weeks from a minor car accident. Bumper and left quarter replaced. Within 4 hrs in the dark I and fellow cobalt owners found these problems:
Headlight rubbing and will wear off paint in time and it is the wrong year headlight (courtesy of Italianjoe else it might of been months before I noticed).

Door rubber guard was left in the back seat.

Broken fog light was put back in place.

Chicken wire grill was not put back in right. Upon car being pulled up I lightly touched it and it fell off.





CAr was repaired at Maroone Chevrolet in Pembroke Pines, Fl

the 07's use the orange bulb in the turn signal, prior years had a transparent orange disk that made the signal orange.

If i were you, i would be throwing a fit at the dealer!

I'll remember that next time.

I like the look of the 07 headlight without the orange lense
