This. The plastic and metal parts on my Fjord match perfectly. I'm pretty sure cab is right that the differences have more to do with different groups painting the parts resulting in the differences. There are inconsistencies in the painting process which results in these differences.

We have seen a few other 370s that have had some severely mis-matched panels that have required warranty attention while there are others that match perfectly (my Solid Red was a perfect match).

Given the overall quality of the paint and clear I think it's pretty safe to say that Nissan has issues when it comes to paint that will hopefully be resolved in the future.
