Post Crack in new paint

It looks like they painted it too thick or something, they said it was the Filler underneath cracking. No Bodywork was needed on the Hood when I took it in so what gives? What can I do to stop the crack from getting bigger?

From what I've heard that's not supposed to happen, unless it was a crappy job. Who painted it? Are they licensed and bonded? Sounds like BS to me.

How long ago did you have it done? If it wasnt that long I'd go back and have'em fix it. BTW do you have that pad in between you engine and hood?
