I can't check at present as wifey has the car, but what has been repaired/replaced?? I can see the boot has had a scrape but what about below.
Given a non parallel gap from bumper to to seal, was the rear panel behind the bumper bent and pushed in. It looks as if it was and the central bumper clip isn't holding.
Paintwork? Can't see any reason why the original wouldn't be the same finish all over. it's done in one operation after all.

Anyone who's had any damage will tell you it's not unusual to have to take it back, it's notoriously difficult for someone who has seen the damage pre repair to accept it as perfect. I'd go back, you could wish you had later if at sale time it gets spotted.

Thanks a lot! Put my mind at rest. Its just jutting out a tad on the sides. 

I also want to thank Renault Enfield who made a video for me.

Hi - 

Yes - I managed to speak to Renault dealership in Enfield and they not only walked around a car describing, but then emailed me photos of the same parts that I took photos.  Then after the phone call, they then created me a video of the back of the car, again highlighting the areas of concern. 

So - apart from the misalignment of the bumper, everything else is to my satisfaction.

(now I just need to know how to close this topic off ! ) - thanks to everyone's help again
