Ted,

i know why your body kit color not matching. The body shop didn't use PPG paint. I had the same problem as you on my kit. After they use PPG, 100% match. Ask your body shop again.

Sweet, a lil bit of contrast never hurt anybody. They do a lot more for the car than your previous setup IMO.

In person it matches perfectly but in pics it always looks off. I think it cause the metalic in hte paint is different and reflects differently in pictures.

Yeah--pics exagerrate the lines/angles which in turn makes the color look off. Are you going to paint your calipers? It will look sick in the reflection of your lip. Can you tell us your tire sizes etc etc.

hehe...it is not true. DB has metalic too. They should match 100% regardless. Here are few shot of mine in different lighting and angle.







The first time they paint, it look pretty close in person but when i take my digital camera to take few picture, the kit look 10% lighter than the orginial color. I made them repaint in PPG with DBC clear coat and it come out 99.9% match in person and in picture. I guess i am just being picky when it come to matching color on the body kit. Just want to point out what i went through so you can have a perfect color match too.

Just to let him know that his car can be BETTER in term of color matching. If you can go for perfection, why not?

TED, your car looks just like the car in the New TUner magazine. Except he has the fender vents, but you both have the same kit and rims. LOL Nice man, it looks soooo hot!!
