IP paint matching....

For owner's of IP G's ... have you had any trouble getting exterior parts resprayed and still matching the original paint. I ask cause I will be getting my OEM front lip and OEM rear mud flaps resprayed in the spring. I have scratched them up in my first year of ownership parking in the city not being used to the ride height of the car.

If you've kept up your original paint on the other panels and find a good paint shop, you shouldn't have any problems. I've had my rear bumper, trunk lid, door handles, mirror bases, rear spoiler, front grille....all resprayed and the paint match was pretty damn good. My painter said that the base coat is what really makes or breaks IP. If you get that right, the rest flows.

just find a good shop or you will see different shades on different panels. My sister had her coupe repained at a shop recommended by the insurance company and she had to get it repainted 4 times because it didn't look right.
