I found some things I didn't like in the paint, so it's going back to the shop soon for some sanding/buffing.
Also noticed they ripped the door seal, so they have to replace that too.

Just remembered to update this thread...
I gave the bus back to the shop for a day for them to take care of a couple paint runs and to replace the door seal they ripped.
They replaced the door seal (at their cost) with a new German seal from Wolfsberg West; that sucker is nice! They also took care of the paint, and everything is kosher now.
I finally had time this weekend to straighten everything back up and put everything back in the bus.
So, in closing, we rolling along again.
