Default Air duct mounted/molded into wrong place on bumper

Just went to pick up my Z from the body shop where they were repainting the NISMO V.1 bumper and molding in an air duct. All I could do was laugh when I saw the car.

I had described to the owner where it would be installed and dropped of the template that came with the new duct. Before the shop started the project they called to confirm which side the duct would go into.

I show up and it's installed, very nicely, under the headlight. My brother saw it and asked me why I had installed a "cold tire intake". Another week without the car.

They siad they would fix it right away. The owner is a business friend so I knew he would take care of it. I really wish I had taken pictures after the fact. It looked so odd. You would all be smiling if you saw it.

They do great work so I know will look perfect when it is done.
