matching Pepper White

Annoyingly, I had to have the rear side panel sprayed. It seems a shade lighter (only in daylight - not electric light) than the door and rear panel.

The body shop says PW is hard to match. Has anyone come across this.

Yours disconsolately

Exactly why i wont have my JCW Aero Kit colour coded - plus the fact i don't like the look of it colour coded spoils the back and white contrast.

The colour should blend and die down.

I had to have similar work done on mine. I used the best Bodyshop in the area. The repair took 5 days rather than 3 because they had serious issues matching the PW paint. They ended up blending over a longer area.

The match is absolutely perfect though
