  Whichever has fuel
Looks to me like there's too much paint. That edge looks like it's swimming in it!

my mechanic his been my dads friend for 18+ years his been working on our family cars for a very long time
I think your statement has hit the nail on the head. He's a " Mechanic " not a Paint Sprayer. As others have said . Just looks like a poor job all round .

ok so basically the paint has fallen off from my bonnet or what so i could explain it to him
Your pics aren't the best to be honest . What's the rest of the bonnet look like ? Don't explain anything to him , take it to him and show him. I'm guessing he did it on the cheap , being a family friend ? You might have to bite the bullet and pay for a proper job at a decent body shop.

  A special one.
It's a brand new bonnet..what's the need for filler?

It's poorly painted
I said it was a sh1t job, no need to split hairs.

On my phone with such a close up picture, to me it looked like filler. If its a build up of paint then its even more of a sh1t job.
