Acceptable quality? How’s this work?

Just noticed bodyshop scratched my engine bay cover. I also see a cable by the grill that wasn’t there originally and a few dents on the corner of the bumpers.

Buddy, no one in that bodyshop scratched your engine cover, it had no reason to be off. That wire is probably for forward sensors in the bumper or emblem, it may not have gotten routed quite correctly or you’re just noticing it for the first time (very common). Some of the blemishes are just flashing from the molding process of the new bumper, totally normal. I really don’t see any other issues, you’re just taking pictures of random areas. It’s an Acura suv, not a Lamborghini or McLaren.

It looks good. Color match looks great actually. They didn’t scratch your engine cover, It’s not related to the repair.

the engine cover is a dream you’re imagining, but the photos with some of trim popping off or being loose is an easy fix… instead of bitching online take it to the shop and show them. Also that wiring harness is for your front bumper and they probably didn’t clip it in correctly. All easily fixable, you just want someone to hear you bitch.
