[QUOTE="Phil04Cobra, post: 14699606, member: 139524"] I really don't want to take my car to a shop to get the work done . Do you think blending would have to take place on the parts I am getting painted . I am only getting the bumper covers , side skirts (which already look waaay off the color of the car ) side scoops and rear spoiler done . They are all plastic . I find the plastic pieces kind of have a different shade to them as is . I will be "anal" if I'm paying upwards of 3 to 4 grand to get the work done and no , I wont stroll into their shop raving about how awesome my car is . I'm not that type of person . From a business standpoint , if someone came into my shop acting like a asshole wanting work done , I would still do the work to the best of my ability regardless of the customers attitude . Butchering someone's ride because of their demeanor sounds silly to me . I would say that someone who is complacent mixing paint has a better chance of screwing up a paint match than someone who takes the time and does it right but I could be 100% wrong . The body shop I went to for a quote asked me to bring in a piece of the car and he would match the paint and seemed very confident that he could match it . I don't know though . My father and Uncle are body/paint guys and they say I will be lucky if it matches as well . If they weren't on the other side of the country I would just have them paint the entire car and be done with it , but that's not the case . If it don't match up , i will start saving for a paintjob . [/QUOTE]
