I would be more worried about the things which you pay for which are called, Checked at Pre elivery, and you pay for but never even get looked at. These are items which you don't see but may not be quite, right but if not correct, could have far reaching efects down the track.
The integrity of the fitting of any accessories would be my concern and I would closely inspect and check tightness of any vital items recently fitted.
There is a thread on here where someones Isuzu bull bar broke, that may well happen , but is far less likely to do so if fitted with correct bolts and tightened properly, ie, the fitter actually had some nouse and the integrity of the fitment was good.

Hi mydmax2,
Yeah, as agreement with the salesman, I will check one by one the pre-delivery check plus all the accessories fitted on the package deal. But the scratching mark is different thing. It's right on facing to me direct to me whenever I open the door. If the touch-up paint is not noticeable then it's Ok ... If not, it will remind me the issue whenever I open the door ... :sad10:
Cheers,
Van

Having said that, if it is not noticeable and your happy with the 'touch up' when you pick it up then no problems?

It's right on the edge of the driver front door. On the small black panel on LHS closed to central column of the car body. Yeah, it's quite so deep that I can see shining groove of aluminium plate. He talked about replacing the panel, but changed his mind said about touch-up paint. It's about my eye level height. ATM I'm waiting for the touch-up. If painting colour is not 100/100 matching with the back panel on the back door, then I will ask for replacement of new part before last payment .
Cheers,
Van

I would not be accepting a new car with a mark or scratch not acceptable its a new car not a demo or 2nd hand car regardless of what accesories the dealer fitted.
my Patrol was scratched slightly while the dealer fitted accesories pre delivery, they where going to send it off to the panel shop to get professionally fixed, they where not going to give me the vehicle with a scratch. ended up inspecting it myself they just agreed to call it even if they threw in some touch up paint and a set of headlight protectors.
