Hey,

I would 100% take this back to the dealer mate, not settle for it.

Seems a popular colour and the one I'd go for. Definitely it has to go back. After all you pay quite a bit extra for these finishes so you would expect it to be perfect.

Which kind of spots? I have two or three very small,like 1 millimeter, spots on the hood and never knew what caused them.

My doors catch when opening and that has taken paint off. It is going back to be remidied but I have found out I'm not the only one. My car is going to be the guinea pig as to how to reset the door positions and well as a total repaint

I too have a Ruby Red but I had the paint seal treatment and have had no problems but my front doors have also dropped and caught the rear doors at the top. Car in on Tuesday 18th December. I would not be surprised if they tried to say, ' I've been leaning on the door whilst it has been open.' I'm only 5ft 4in tall. It would be a rather uncomfortable stance! Have to wait and see.
