i agree with someone else said.. if its the wrong color go back and ask for cash. It doesnt matter what color looks nicer. its the fact that they fcuked up.
Try to get some cash out of them if it truely is a mess up

You think it might be because your car was out in the sun for along time and the paint is faded? A brand new coat of paint will also lighten up after about a week. A fresh coat will always be darker than what was on the car.

Like i said it might be darker now because the fresh paint is not faded like your old paint....

At first i didn't notice anything, but after looking at the pics again, I can see what you're talking about. I think it looks good though, hehehe... At the very least, get a free Clear bra installed asap before you get any chips.

Just my opinion though.
This not just because that I have an AB but something about CB that when hit by sunlight that it glow and somewhat look gay to me. This JIMHO.
