Mr Boston

I just brought a white bone stock 2000 ek hatch. I plan on putting a mugen lip,ctr front grill, and getting all of the black plastic dx things painted. Since the car is 3 years old will the newly painted things match the factory paint already on the car?

Pho Real

Nope

Mr Boston

Ok that sucks, So theres no way out of it?

Jmunk

They should be dam close. Dependin upon who paints it and how good they mix it.

Evs-One

it will match fine. 3 years old is nothing. It won't match perfectly at first, but once the new paint cures and the rest of the car is buffed, will look factory

Pho Real

Uhhh, I usually don't go against Emerika.... but I am sticking with my original answer, the only way to get it to match is by blending. Blending would be alot of work for those parts.

Mr Boston

Is tafetta white really that hard to match?

Pho Real

I think white is one of the hardest to match right? I know silver was a bitch on my show kaa, I ended up spraying the whole thing.

ProEater

youll be fine just use the paint code. when its all on give the whole car a good wash and wax to even things up a little

slowdx

With a good buff and after curing you wont be able to tell

yeah, i'd say silver is the hardest. i remember someones 350z got hit. and it was silver, and the best paint shop wouldnt even bother to quote it, because the silver was too hard to match
