Is it me or does the paint on the repaired side not match the hood now?

The repaired side does seem to be a tad darker.

It could just be how the light hits it though.

I think it turned out pretty good. It's definatly the shade/lighting messing with the color of the car. How much did that set you back, getting that fixed?
