Color match ok?
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hey all, just got my shine auto rear spats back after a "test" paint and wanted to ask everyone's opinion on the color. As you all may know the 40th quartz color can be difficult to match and for the life of me I couldn't (not could the painter) find OEM Nissan paint. That said my painter followed the KAV color details including the special toner needed. So, what does everyone think of the color match? My painter is waiting to paint my Stillen side skirts and CS Spec-Me (Mines replica) lip until I decide on the color.

If you have to ask, it probably isn't OK.

it's a different hue in the pict, but in person who knows it might not be too bad. check under different lighting too.

IMO, it looks fine. It's less glossy than the paint but i'd be interested to see how they look after some sealant and wax.

Good looking color, but it looks darker than the body.

If you're looking for an exact match...this isn't it. Definitely darker as others have noted. That said, I don't think the darker shade looks bad...so it's all up to your preference.

Yeah I'm struggling. Just took the car and rear spats to an open parking lot in with a slight overcast and the color looks spot on from 20-30 ft. Think I'm gonna stick with this color. Thanks for the insight everyone.

I'd do the rear diffuser area the fangs and Spec-ME lip that color also, it'll be a nice contrast.
