Inca Pearl.. A hard colour to match????

This goes out to all of those Inca Pearl civics. I was just wondering if you guys have had any problems with colour mathcing of your body kits or spoilers, or is the match perfect. I sure you must see a bit of a difference, let me and the other inca Pearls know!

It all depends on the paint shop that is matching the color.
I know for sure that when using urethaine body kits, the paint looks a bit different, cause the type of flexible paint that is used on this kind of material change colors when is dry.

Even when the mix is perfect.
A good boddy shop will try it first, to see what it looks like when dry, and then make an adjustment.
(be ready to be flammed by the haters)
Our Inca Pearl brings the worst on some of our members.
Just ignore them, the important thing is that you like it.
Cheers

I love Inca and wouldnt own another color. As soon as my civic is paid off Im going to buy a truck and paint it Inca Pearl and Haul my car with it. My body man siad it isnt that bad at all. He painted my grill and One of my other body kits for my civic and it matched great. I think it all depends on the man behind the gun.

Yah, it looks good but the sun doesn't reflect off the painted pieces the same and the metal of the car.

I chose this color because all the other colors are on all types of other cars. It was the first one I looked at and I had to have that color. Even my OEM kit from Honda doesnt match perfect but its real hard to tell unelss you look upclose.
