ralliart grille

i just got a ralliart grille from the seller on ebay (japanparts-in-tokyo i believe), but anyway the fit is great, but the color is slightly off, but i ordered it in lightning yellow. I think that it may be that my car is faded, and the grille is brand new. will the grille eventuallly fade and match my car?

i'm 99% sure the reason why it's off is just because your car color has faded due to time. I challenge anyone else with a ralliart grill to really take a close look at the color...I don't think anyones matches perfectly unless of course the car is garage kept. It's no big deal.

Yeah It Will Not Match Becuase Of The Fading In Color. You Can Just Wait For Couple Of Moths And The Color Of The Grille Will Also Fade So It Will Be Even...
