Right. I wasn't expecting perfect, but that's an obvious difference. Makes it look ugly imo

How much did they charge.

To paint and put it on, about 500.

I had a rear bumper replaced and painted on my last BMW.
The paint match was perfect.

You should expect a perfect match. Don't find yourself negotiating an acceptable mismatch.

Update: called and explained the issue. The paper work says there's a 3 year warranty on all parts and labor work. So that's a plus! The owner said he'll speak to the Dallas location and their painter.

I'll keep you guys posted!
