The colors are very different. Championship White is much more of a "creamier" color and next to Frost White you can spot the difference within seconds.

Friend has Champ white ITR and it was next to another friends Frost White teg and its night and day.

It will definately be noticeable. If it were me, I'd just stick with the whole car being Frost White

Totally agree. It will never look right.

Also if you ask me changing the color from one white to another is really stupid. Nobody is going to notice as much as one would think. IMO its just a waste of time and money.

i need to repaint my car anyways, so it wouldnt cost too much more to paint it champ white instead of frost white... i already got a quote, $250 for frost white and $300 for champ white, but since the whites are off i think ill stick to frost white
