Default Color match comments

What do you think of the color match that was done on this Stillen rear valance on my 06 silverstone. I think it is off quite a bit - too light.

Thanks

That looks like a 2 tone paint job. Where did you take it?

A highly reputable shop in So Cal - M1 Autobody. They have offered to repaint it to my satisfaction and they have been good to me. I think the shop does good work but they got this wrong. The side skirts and front end match well. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy.

You are definately NOT crazy... That is a pretty good amount off I would say, have them re-do it.

It's pretty lousy as far as matching. But it kinda looks cool like a 2 tone camry.

Id have them redo it and say sorry it just doesnt match.
I have bad eyes and i can see the difference.

Thanks all. Exactly what I thought. They are going to repaint it when the wing comes in.
