The repaint job is fine, the front looks good and I cannot find a discoloration now. At the rear, my OCD eyes still find a minor discoloration.

Hello BHP’ians,
As promised here is an update on the discoloration fix. The initial impressions of Incheon KIA, Cochin did not last long as they did not contact me back for the fix. So now being back in Bangalore, I got in touch with my service center (Naara KIA) and the repainting is now done.
The repaint job is fine, the front looks good and I cannot find a discoloration now, but on the rear, my OCD eyes still find a minor discoloration, but that is something I guess, I can live with.
It’s been nearly a year since I initially reported the issue, but because of multiple reasons, my work schedule, and delay from the service centers the fix was delayed, but better late than never, it’s now completed. Now, let me be honest, I have been keeping an open eye on this issue, and mostly all white Seltos’ I have seen have this discoloration and most owners haven’t even noticed it. So really if this issue doesn’t bother you much, leave it as it is, but otherwise, contact your service center/write to KIA care and this can be sorted. Cheers!
