A good bodyshop should be able to fix it. You should tell the company that sold you the item you want a discount

Take pictures and complain. If the item was Damaged then you should be entitled to a refund/exchange. Assuming if you bought from a company...

If the chip isn't that deep, they can sand it and paint. But if it's deep, they will fill it and sand. Then paint.

Sorry to hear about it.

a bummer I'm sure but that's simple for a body shop to do. My Wald needed to be sanded and primed anyways. It's not just a quick paint. It isn't smooth to begin with. Good luck.

It would probably be easier to ask your local body shop to just fix it and have the company give you some discount off the wing.
