Hi all, I recently got my bmw resprayed and i thought it looked a bit mismatched. Can you please tell me if im just looking into it too much or if it is actually a mismatch. The front bumper was done and the rear bumper too. Thanks

Very difficult to tell with car in the shadows of the fence and early/late day sun. Best to examine in full sun. It is also very difficult to get a perfect match… it is a beautiful car even if a minor difference in colour.

space grey is a hard color to match without blending into the surrounding panels. heres a picture of my car with the front resprayed

That's actually really good for a light grey/silverish colour.

Rear bumper looks a little off.

But it is only the way the metallic flakes are sprayed. Unless it is on the car, and being blended into the other panel, it's pretty difficult to get it 100%. Especially on a plastic bumper.
