Did they blend into the fenders at all?? If not, how did the paint match up? I'm gonna paint my hood but debating blending into fenders and painting bumper at same time. There are 6 variants on my white, can you fricken believe it??

I would recommend if you have a white color or a pewter/silver color you should blend into the fenders and the front end. Its really hard to make them colors match if you know what I mean.

Yup. People always have the misconception that white and even black are easy colors to match, when in reality those are two of the hardest colors aside from the heavy metallics. I had a black car that had 4-5 different varients also. What a pain.
