Can JGMods Match Alpine White(alpinweiss3)? I Heard it is Hard To Match

I heard that alpinweiss3 / 300 was a hard paint to match.

Has anyone had experience with jgmods and if the paint matches excellent?

I am getting a m3 front replica from them.

I know they have good customer service and also prices and bumper fit seems to be great but I am concerned with paint match.

I don't want to look at my car and have a bumper that stands out in different lighting due to slide shade difference.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Best to always do it at a shop.

I bought painted reflectors from a popular vendor on here and while the colors for my AW is close, it's still a bit off. It's enough to bother me... Trust me, you don't want that for a whole bumper because it'll stick out like a sore thumb.

I agree go see my other thread. I brought to a local shop and match is still off.

As a general rule white is the worst color to match, too many variations. Silver is the second worst color.
Though I would assume a reputable shop would have computerized mixing machines to eliminate any mismatches.

First place I went got it wrong and said there is only 3 variants. None work.

I just dropped it off at AMS autowerks with Diego. He said he has done many and that get knows it will fit and said he doesn't need the car or anything.
