I had my car at a shop to get the floors replaced, they completed one side, then their welder quit and my car sat at the shop for two years. I took it to another shop and they finished the other side.
Now the two sides look very different. I'm wondering which is better and if I should do anything. Should I smooth out welds, apply seam sealer, etc.
The original shop did not use seam sealer, they welded a continuous bead around the whole panel. The second shop, it looks like they did spot welds and then used seam sealer. I could probably take it back to the second shop and ask them to improve it, or I could clean it up myself, but I don't have a welder.
Any advice is appreciated. I have posted several photos below, I have numbered the photos, it should be obvious which side is which. I want the car to last a long time as well as look good if a potential future buyer puts it on a lift to look at it.
