It will NOT match. They can do their best to blend it in, but it will never look as good as OEM.

A good body shop should be able to match the paint. I'm pretty sure his insurance is going to recommend reputable Shops in the area.

His car should be return to him from the body shop as it was before the accident and should have lifetime warrranty on the work. He should check with his insurance appraisal incharge of your case.

BTW, that damage is around $8K if the headlight didn't get damage.
