Pin stripe on Pin stripe

So i bought a 2004 G35 and it had a gold pinstripe on it. So today i decided to take it off, however when i took it off there was another pinstripe! Apparently the dealership had covered this "hand painted" pin stripe. The thing that really bothers me is the painted stripe isnt complete on the right side of the car only the right bumper has it. However on the left side (driver side) its almost completely done except the passenger door where its 1/3 done. Anyone ever see this before?? Tomorrow im going to the dealership and raising hell...

That means the car has been repainted and they put a pinstripe over the existing stripe so they didn't have to hand paint a matching pinstripe.

I'm not sure the dealership will do much. The previous owner could have done it and traded the car in or they bought it at auction like that. They aren't gonna really do anything for you.

Was the carfax clean ?

Maybe take it to a body shop and have them inspect it
it could be it was repainted.. If so .. For what reason ..?

The dealership must be held accountable somehow ..

Id say get it inspected by body shop first before going to dealership .
So you have info in hand . Otherwise theyl just say whyd you take it off or some dumb excuse not to be liable for it ..

Just my opinion ..
