Same color code for both but for some reason the code matches the ap2 better. Could be because of the fading paint in ap1s because of the longer exposure to the elements I don't know. Next time you repaint it have them match the color of your car not just go off the code.

Different variables in every paint color..you need to choose which one matches ya car better

It would drive me nuts and it would bother me all the time. They may have to blend somewhat on the hood and fenders just to get it close. Even with the blend since bumper is plastic you would not have a 100% match, but it will be much closer than what you have. You are looking at close $500 for this type of work.
