C300
Is this from being repainted?

Hello Folks,

Just picked up a brand new C300 a week ago and I am loving it so far.

So far everything seems to be perfect except for as seen in the picture.

All the other edges on each fender look fine except for the passenger rear. I am wondering if there was damage when delivering the car and they tried to repair it. It looks like the inconsistent rough edge is rather soft, so I am guessing there is too much paint?

I am not an expert, so I am hoping some of you might be able to chime in.

It's hard to tell, does the other side looks like that? I almost look like where they fold over the tape and use paper or plastic to protect the wheel well from overspray.. From the looks of it though, it can be sanded down and buffed out.

If it's brand new I would expect them to fix that for you. Could have been as simple as maybe a defect in the creation of that panel at the factory.
