Black is probably the hardest color to match, many different shades!

Flat colors, including the flat black used by Lexus, Mercedes and others (although many cars also offer a metallic black), are actually the easiest to match when repainting due to an accident.

Agreed, metallic paints are the biggest pain... Especially silver... I rarely see a metallic silver match exactly, usually some blending is required...

No clear coat on the 2006???

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!

This has got to be the most clear and convincing evidence yet that sales people are the most uninformed, stupidest, and retarded people when it comes to car knowledge on the planet.

Please, this is a message to everyone on the forum. Do NOT listen to anything that any sales person tells you, ever again. That will clear up about 95% of the misinformation spread throughout the galaxy.
