ScEnforce:

I just left the body shop. You are 100% right about that white diamond color. It's a ***** to match. They ended up having to call the insurance adjuster from Farmers to come take a look to get approval for blending in the rear corne Panels and trunk. This was a perfect time for me to get rid of that Versace gaudy-*** spoiler! I want to go with the small lip spoiler that all the sweet SC's have that look more updated. So I told them when they blend it to remove the spoiler and fill in the holes.
Does anyone out there know if the small lip spoiler can use the old OEM drill holes from the Versache Spoiler? Or are they going to have to drill in a totally new area?

Also, I had the front bumper painted over. She look New from the front end now. I'm a proud SC owner!!

I've always heard white was tough to match, but it sounds to be the toughest of all of the SC colors.

This is the same situation I'm in, I've been holding off on bodykit for this reason exactly! My paint is super clean, it does not need to be painted at all! However, if I'm kitting the car, I'm left with bodykit not matching the rest of the car or shell out some more cash for the entire paint job!

Man, I wish I could mobile upload my pics from my phone so that you fellas could see what happened.

Also, about the LED's that I just got put in so that I could get some input from the SC owners.

Yea thats a good point. Most people wouldnt notice the difference anyways. Just us SC owners tend to be really picky

Thats almost exactly how mine looks, then again I only left him a gas cap to match the paint against. I think Im headed the SFP route as well.
