But another thing you have to understand is how air pressure gun settings among other things can change the color with metallics to do it right it should be shot assembled all at one time
AKA the HACK
I have the whole underside of the truck painted, firewall, inside fenders and inside the cab. As soon as I opened these new gallons of paint I knew it didn't look right. I try and pay close attention to my air pressure. You can see in this picture the difference between the firewall and the underside of the hood. Now Its too cold here now for me to do anything with paint. Maybe by spring, they will have a new batch that's close. If not I guess I will have to do a total repaint.
