That is interesting. I know that the front nose, rear bumper, hood and spoiler (last two only apply to a SS) can look a bit different because they are not painted with the body of the car, but the door and fender should look the same, I wonder if it is just the angles??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I notice differences in my silver also...I had a few flaws in it....looked like the metalic gathered in one area in a few spots....the dealer had the entire driver side of the car repainted. The part that really bothers me is the fact that none (with all colors) of the hoods and spoilers match the rest of the car...doesnt seem like it would be that much of a prob to get them to match.
