we got a paint shop next door to my unit,
the painter always complains when he just get s parts to paint off the car
as they never come out the right colour compared to the rest of the car,
but you got to paint it and fit it to see that its differant and needs done again,
so prob best fit the part and then get it painted,
but i'm no paintwork expert so best speak to whoever paints it
just my personal experience
