Good day all.

I just came back from the dealer after getting a few things installed.
After getting home I realized that the dealer scuffed up the window borders on the windshield side pretty badly during door visor install (pictures below).

Is this something that the dealership ought to take care of?
Is there a way that I can touch it up so that it doesn't look so bad?

I also noticed a scratch a little more than a half inch long upon getting it home the first day.

Recommendations?

Thanks!

Edit: Sorry! I should have been more specific in the thread title!

Dealership installed?

Bring it back and tell them to fix it. You may have to yell.

Well you could show it to them and they might put some touch up paint on it for you out of good will but I think that will be the extent of their efforts. If it's not that deep you can probably buff it out or they might try to.

The Fit's paint is terribly thin, get used to scratches and wax it often.
