I know I know it looks horrible right now, this is pre paint job and still working on it a little bit. But I'm just trying to figure out exactly which one is the championship white so I can rock that on my car.

The rear of the car (bumper, hatch) is still the stock Tafetta, as well as the front bumper. The front fender is a used ITR fender that I'm pretty confident is CW, but just used (has VIN). The door I got used, and was told it was CW, but it looked kinda weird, wasn't too worried about it since the door wasn't too expensive. The rear quarter panel was painted (got hit by my neighbor at work, and they fixed it) and I told them to paint it CW, even gave the body shop the factory color code for it too. But now I'm so confused/frustrated about the actual color of CW. Any help would be apprciated.

 

The fender looks to be CW. If the door is off of a jdm itr the campionship white from Japan was actually darker than the USDM CW.

 

id say fender and door are CW. but if they are diff colors then i would put money on it that the fender is right. CW is more of a cream

 

the fender and door are both CW

you cant expect the paint to be perfectly matched on both those panels if they came from different cars.. thats why one is darker and one is lighter..


does it matter?

just get the car resprayed

 

CW are hard to color match...i just painted my frontend, and it is a little lighter than the body...you can go and ask for the same color twice...it is very difficult for the paintshops to get it perfectly right....i took my gas door to the paintshop for color matching and they still didn't get it 100% right...after i painted the front end it i took it to the paintshop and they told me the new paint has to settle in it was Bullshit...
