Here's what I mean: two pictures of the same car, taken same day, with same camera, by the same person (me). The close-up is where the hood meets the facia and the fender near the corner of the hood.
What are you trying to defend here?? GM has shipped out cars to members of this forum with mismatched front fascia's that according to them are noticeable in person as well as in pictures. This is a fact. The bumpers being painted by a supplier separate from the main body is also a fact. I have on order an IOM Camaro which is going to be pulled on Monday at midnight so I am worried. My second choice for a color is cyber grey. Both of these colors are the ones with the most color mismatching issues on this forum. I do understand your point if the mismatch would only be visible in a picture but this is not the case with most of them so far. Just because you saw one in person that fit this description doesn't mean every problem like this is the same.. If the paint does not match perfectly it is unacceptable, simple as that..

If Gm does know about this issue and ships the car anyways, there is a problem..If GM misses seeing the issue and ships the car, this in my opinion is another problem. Either way GM needs to do something about this issue and rectify the problem.
