My car arrived yesterday and is now at the detailer. Just want to share what he found and what he said “Paint needs a little more attention than i originally thought. A lot of factory holograms and buffer swirls left behind. As well as some compound splatter (white spots you were seeing) and compound in the cracks. Not going to increase price but just wanted you to know. Not entirely uncommon but was hoping to get lucky on this one.Of course, will be flawless when I'm done.”

My Hethel yellow looked the same when it went in for correction, PPF, and coating.
I initially blamed the dealership monkeys but I feel some of the blame goes to the factory as well after talking to a few HY owners with the same holograms and swirls and haze.
Luckily everything came out fairly easily and looks absolutely perfect now.

I did not have the dealership wash it all as I just don’t trust someone messing it up . I didn’t even have them remove plastic cover on the seats haha but seems like my detailer is quite confident
