Had my 228 detailed and opticoated today

Spent my $500 rebate on getting my 228 I Msport detailed and opticoated today, pictures attached. Very happy but my detailer , CMC detailing of Charlotte discovered two small flaws in my exterior. 1. A very small chip in the shadowline trim around my window. May have happened during shipping but I've had car for over three weeks and there's a lot of road construction going on in my area so it may may have been a rock from one of the trucks. 2. A black dust spec embedded under the clear coat on the rear bumper. It's really tiny, so sorts thinking of living with it. Afraid I'd be more bothered by results of dealer repainting rear bumper. Thoughts ?

Agreed' I used it on my 128 but this is not a chip, it's a black spec embedded in the clear oat on the rear bumper
