Just returned the car to AAMI.

1. Hole ripped in vinyl in door trim ("Wasn't us" said the panel beater.) AAMI are replacing
2. Section of passenger side body kit cracked ("Wasn't us" said the panel beater) AAMI are repairing or replacing
3. Suspension is not right. Steering wheel off centre, steering vague when driving straight, back end moves around, and twitches, and kicks to the right when you go over any undulations. Getting a mechanical engineer to inspect. AAMI will fix

Good news is the panel repair seems good, and the colour coding cost me nothing! He painted the existing (and new) bump strips for nix, mainly because I had to wait so long and didn't give him a hassle.

Will post pics when I get it back
