Specifically, the hood fits poorly and the cowl panel looks like it was forced into place and there is a tiny paint chip where you can see the new paint being lifted off of the cowl panel. I am talking the size of a nail tip. Given the painter and I discussed that this was not going to be a show quality paint job and not "perfect" am I in the wrong asking my painter to address and fix the chip/hood alignment?

I hate to be the rude, needy, anal customer but given I paid around 6k for a new paint job I also feel some what entitled to bring this up the painter.

Any advice on how to address would be greatly appreciated.
Was that 6K for just paint or what body work was included in this work... For 6K all I am doing is sanding , priming, a little skim coating painting, and cleaning up a few dirt spots...
