Default paint

On the passenger side door there is a very visable run in the paint. I have an Artic White car and the run is large enough at the bottom of the door to see almost 10 feet away. Has anyone expierenced this and will the dealer fix it? Will the Manufacturer warranty this? Please let me know Thanks

Take it to the dealer.

They should fix it. No problem.

Good luck and enjoy your vette.

Have seen "orange peal', but not "runs'. As Lars suggests take it back to the dealer. Hard to believe the factory missed an obvious paint flaw. Another reason to have Museum Delivery as they would have most certainly caught it.

Hey, atleast the paint wasn't missing on a panel...Try to post some pics of the "run" so some pros can analyze it for you.
