Damage to front cap

While at the shop for something else the front cap of our thunderbolt was scratched enough to need to send paint and replace the graphics (original assessment from the shop).

I have not looked at it yet, but other than the obvious cracking around the site and any caulk that might be stressed is there any other specifics I should look for when I take a look at it?

I am not happy about it, but I realize accidents happen and the shop owned up to it immediately and are taking care of everything to repair it correctly. I just want to make sure when I am looking over it all I look at the right things.

In the end it was less than originally explained. Yes, there was a scratch, but it did not even leave a gouge in the fiberglass. They repainted that section of the cap and no one can tell it was even repainted.
