Impossible to get better paint match?

Impossible to get better paint match?
Sorry if this is the wrong sub-forum, but I figured it would be seen by more people here. I have an 06 DG coupe and when I bought it, it had more than it's share of paint chips. I had it repainted, but it doesn't match (not well enough for me anyway) Most people say they can't really tell, but it drives me NUTS. It is even more blatant in pictures...see for yourself. I feel this can be matched better due to the numerous DG G's with aftermarket bumpers that look almost perfectly matched. Sorry for rambling...onto the pics

that's a terrible paint match.
Most shops you to to will tell you that it's hard to match the color, that's why you got to go to shops that do allot of aftermarket body work. they got painters there that can really match it good for you.
I had my front bumper painted twice on IP, that's a 3 stage color, and both times it was matched perfectly.
just depends where you go.

Not hard to tell the match is bad at all, I'm on my iPhone viewing the forum in mobile mode which makes it impossible to even zoom in to see the pictures. Either I got some good eyesight or you guys need to upgrade some monitors.
That is a bad match, I don't know what your shop told you but 1 shade darker is comletely unacceptable. If anything tell them to quit fckin around trying to match it by color code and have them whip out a paint pallet booklet and get the job done right.

trust me man, everytime i look at it i want to get rid of it cause i can't take it anymore. it may be minor in the eyes of some, but i feel like i may as well be driving a buick, because this bumper completely ruins the car to me.

Looking at the pic, they did a very poor job matching the paint! Sadly the painter didn't take the time to match your paint, this wouldn't happen at a good body shop. Try to get them to do it right, a blind man could see this doesn't match....not even close! I wouldn't be happy with these results either....
