yup, doesn't match. i think they sprayed a very light base coat. if not, they just didn't match the correct paint.
also, i think it looks fine. unless u can't live the fact that it doesn't 100% match.
usually when you go to a paint shop a second time around, they tend not to do a good job.

The grey part looks fine, but i think the top part of the bumper could have matched better. Can you compare the front bumper of the car? There will always be a color difference between the plastic and the metal panels.

lol. that freakin sucks. too funny. take it back. you know what, that is the oyster pearl color. ask the bodyshop what the color code was that they sprayed it. i bet theyre going to say 4m7?(oyster pearl). because thats the color of my car, well at least the respray unmatched part. man. that sucks

Yep, it's off but not by much. I had to get my front bumper repainted too. The lower grey didn't match well enough the first time. Second time it came out perfect.
Say, what's that black and blue square on your trunk lid for? Just curious...

i took it back, they said they'd re-blend the quarter panel and whatever and they said i had to pay to have it re-done.
its a "Thin Blue Line" Sticker/Magnet (i made it into a magnet by placing the sticker on a magnet piece.
