Thats BS man, and I was just reading your other thread, I dont know what to say man. I had my car at the body shop for the last 4 days just for side skrits and a rear lip and its all one big half ass job and while im not pissed about it it still bothers me. You would think if they used the same paint on everything and blended it in there wouldnt be any problems, its really not that hard, I would be pissed about it too man.


Its a lot more complicated then you think. Some colors from what I understand are harder to match. IE oxidation, faded, poor lighting when painting can effect quality, in correct base coating, ect ect ect. thier are many different veriables tha can come into play.

Werd. According to my paint guy, white and silver are the hardest to match.

This is very true. I've been painting cars for over 3 years now. Also, light metallic beige can be tricky to if your're spot painting which is a challenge to do.

my paint guy has had great luck doing my car, he has done my bumper/ lip, my trunk, all my badges, and most recently driver door and front fender, all match perfect in all light conditions.
 
Sunlight silver is an easy silver to match.. nothing like the dark metallic 350z silver, that's a b****. My summer hood was painted without my car even present and it's friggin dead on, wild.
 
freshly washed, clay barred, and waxed...

Did any cars ever come stock with the MP3 wing in sunlight silver? Like off an 02 MSP or something? I haven't really seen any other than on conversions like mine. Im debating weather or not to swap my wing, I would really like too but im thinking im probably gonna stick with my ES wing:)
