I just got my car back from getting some work done on it.

I got my front and rear valance painted along with my rockers.

I customized my rear valance and wanted everything painted to match.

Now, after picking up my car just five days ago, the paint is bubbling on two of the four panels. I expect the others to follow soon.

Major bummer, what should I do?

You must have oil based paint under it...I'm just guessing....something isn't compatable.

I'd take it down to bare metal and start over.

You would think the place where I got it painted would have known that.

Plus they aren't standing by their work.
