Default Problem w/ Body Shop....

My car came back from Body shop in Charlotte last Friday.
I think they painted to 05' Rio Yellow...
My car is 02 Spa Yellow.

I told that they painted to Rio Yellow. I can tell paint color differences when I open doors, trunks.and etc.
But they told me they painted to Spa yellow....
Too much B.S.....

I gotta go there again to discuss.

It sucks...

I can guaratee you that they ddin't use honda paint. They probably used some cheap crap like sherwin williams. Mixed it themselves and charged you normal price.

Had a friend with a yellow mazdaspeed protege have the same problem at McClure's.....they went back over and re-did the panels...came out almost matching just right.

If it was done at the dealership, I am surprized they didn't take the time to look at the paint code which would have told them exactly which to use.

Hello
My car was done by Hendrick Honda Colision Center @ Charlotte.
They told me they used same paint code but I'm kinda doubt that....
But paint itself came very good though

I'll wait for their response.
