S2000 2005 Silverstone metallic paint

I just got my rear bumper repainted using the color code nh630m. The shade came out to be a little darker than the color of the rest of the car. Also, I bought an oem lip with original paint and I am having the same issue. The lip also seems to a little bit darker than the rest of the car.

Can someone explain to me what is going and what I can do?
Kinda disappointed lol

Your car has been out in the wind, sun, and other weather the past 12 years.

That and the fact that there are around 6-8 different shades of Silverstone that were produced by Honda, even if the VIN is used to get the proper formula it will not give you a 100% match. I have had a few parts resprayed with varying results by the same shop.
