Default Is it hard to paint match PPW???

I want to get a bodykit for my PPW but my friend told me its very hard to match the paint, does anyones have any solutions. By the way its gonna be Do-Luck or Vertex so it gonna be a very big job.

PPW is color code QX1, a tri-color paint. Also, that same color code is used for Glacier Pearl on the Nissan Murano and some other Ivory color on the Infinitys. All of the colors have the same color code, but they are slightly tweaked to make them different. However, paint shops dont know how to differentiate, so they just use regular QX1 to paint them. Thats why it may not be a perfect match even though you are using the exact same color code as your car came in stock. This is the same reason why touch up paints dont always look good.
