Hey guys, i just got my ipl front bumper and side skirts paint matched to k51 and installed it. But after it was installed, i noticed the paint difference. I knew this was going to be an issue but didnt realize how off it could look when its installed and next to my oem paint. Now i have to uninstall it and get it closer then reinstall it. (pain in the ***) I was just wondering how many people got it repainted but it was off so had to go back.

The only real way to get it to match is to have the paint shop paint it on the car and paint about 8-10 inches past the bumpers. Then the entire panel will have to be clearcoated. That way the paint can be blended.
