They're B S 'ing you. I've done 2 sets now, one for me and one for a friends 986, and both turned out great.

I'd find out exactly what they used to make them melt...if they did.

They possibly might have had them too close to a heat source or spilled an acid based product on them.

Either way it's their problem not yours !

I had to sand the texture off of mine (that was real tough). Gave then proper prep and primer and multi coats of paint. They came out great.

The body shop that you used don't know poo about painting if they screwed them up. Get the old ones back for inspection and don't let this shop attempt another set at your expense.
