It is metallic. It's just a little bit lighter so I think it doesn't show as much. Also it's a little less glossy. When I saw it in person I didn't notice. I just realized it last night when I was looking at a pics side by side, then I realized it was off.

My car guy picked it up and brought it to his shop yesterday and I'm heading over there today to drop off some parts so I'll look at it again.

I said this thread was stupid for many reasons. First, I should have tested the color first, that was dumb. Second, I'm not sure that trying to re-paint it now is the best idea. Even though it's not a perfect color match, Archie did a really nice job on the application and I'm worried that I'll just mess it up by trying to redo it.
