Painting my moonstone gunmetal (6N0) questions -_-

[RB-GTE]

So I have a factory moonstone gunmetal metalic supra (6N0)

 

The roof and hatch has some paint damage, also just installed a new hood.

 

 

So I will need the roof painted and blended just right before the quarer pannels, also the hatch.

then for the front both the side fenders would be painted as well to match with the hood.

while this is getting done I'm putting some new sides on

 

 

So the only thing remaining will be my front bumper, doors, and quarter pannels (which were already repainted previously)... although the sides are in great condition and colour looks great.

 

 

If I can get the paint matched up exactly like my quarters and doors you guys think I should be good?

The car is going to my paint guy in a few days, he already said it will be no problem but I want to make sure.... because I'm open repainting the car but it will just take a lot more work and money of course.

All depends on the paint and the person doing the job mate. To be honest, if the doors and quarter panels and bumper have been done recently with the same paint I can't see there being much problem.

It should look fine.

As said, given that 6N0 is a metallic paint, it's nearly impossible to "match" exactly - but if the same painter with the same paint mixture is doing the work, it *should* be as close as possible.

Of course, it all depends how particular you are.
