looks like an impact mark on a flexible bumper cover. i had something similar happen to a air dam (front spoiler) on a vw when the car very large rock. then spoiler flex and the paint cracked around it but remained in place just cracked. so is this on the bumper or hood?
Looks like they did not let the base coat dry long enough and overloaded the clear.

Yeah, that`s some sort of chemical wrinkling for sure...dunno if it was external, in the paint as Rydawg suggests, or body repair as BufferBarry states.
If it`s stock paint, looks like heat-induced damage? Parked too close to a *very* hot surface or burned with an orange pad.
If its aftermarket, just a poor paintjob.
Once you buff black, you never go back
Is that on an Altima? Could it be after effects of a PDR job?
Crappy paint job. Looks like a possible re-paint to me.

Didn`t see it, but you can tell by the area of the cracking that it wasn`t real small.

Maybe he was using a hammer instead of the proper pdr tools
Possibly the paint was fractured in/during the dent. Popping it back out is likely just showing what was already fractured. I`ve referred a couple of clients to a pdr guy who has shown them the fractures under proper lighting.
I think there`s a much stronger chance of cracking/fracturing the finish when there`s twice the thickness? Especially when there`s even heavy primer/sealer in between. Do any PDR techs ever use a PTG to cover themselves?
