I've sent photos to FPV and they're requested that I go to a dealership so that they can deal with it properly. Looks like they'll have to respray my whole body kit to match the rest of the car. Ego looks good but whoever sprayed the bodykit on my car is f*cking colour blind!

They're all coming out to 'investigate how they could possibly let such an error in paintwork get through quality control.' lol

Cost Ford $3250... You think they would do it properly in the first place.Have found out since that the platics are painted offsite at Venture Plastics, using different brand paints. So there would never really be a chance to match it.So keep on complaining, they will give in.
