Does look like a bad job tbh Mouse, I've had nothing like that happen to mine.

The only place the paint has come off is the bottom after bottoming it out loads of times and scraping it.

im really careful with my splitter now as parking in tesco is a nightmare if i go to far forward it scrapes on the curb, the place im taking it to is gonna use his paint oven so the paint gets baked on and wont come off fingers crossed.
