I'm sure it's too light
Might do it again with a black base see if it darkens it up

On splitters and stuff like that where the bodywork doesnt flow, you dont even notice a slight mismatch!

looks good mate - the surfaces do not lead into each other and are curved thus you will never get an exact match as the light reflects different

looks fine and rember the way the panel goes will efect how the light comes off it so it will look different, also the substrate it is will make a difference to how it looks!
