montego blue owners w/ spoilers...

if you didn't buy it from the factory w/ the spoiler and got it afterward did you have any problems with matching the color? i'm thinking about getting the 99 spec wing but wanna make sure i don't have to spend $$$$$$ to get it to match properly. i've read that panel body panels is difficult, but hopefully the wing is easier.
thank

ITS HARD IF NOT IMPOSIBLE TO MATCH THE PAINT
ON A 10-11 YEAR OLD CAR....I MEAN THE STOCK COLOR
HAD TO HAVE FADED A LITTLE FROM SUN EXPOSURE

AND THE FRESH PAINT THAT WILL BE APPLIED ON THE
99 SPEC SPOILER WILL NOT BLEND IN 100 PERCENT
IN MY OPINION

I took mine to a highly recommended local shop and it looks PERFECT. I was even very suprised at the match. I left my car there so they could check it against my paint. I checked a few shops and all were around $200.

You can probably get it to match pretty well except for maybe under artifical light, thats the only time I can notice the paint is different on my PFS front clip and Racing Beat wing.
