Ok i dont know if its just me but i have just changed the drivers door on my 406, Both colour codes are the same (KMDC matalic blue) but it looks like its a little darker and its really doing my head in. Is it just me or is there differant shades??????????????

Thanks

Well, when I had some paint thrown at my Sherwood Green last year, there was 4 different shades of it at the paint merchant
Anyway, none of those matched, and had some made to match the car itself

paint over the years will fade and colour differently. if a door was left in the shade for 10 years and another in the sun for 10 years.

even both being the same colour code would probably be a whole lot different at that stage.

examle. i changed my drivers side front wing 6 months ago. and its a totally different shde to the door , both cars had same code .

Get someone to buff one side of the car,
or Tcut the dull part till it blends in with the other pannels ,,
