How is the paint match on Anthracite?

So, the question is how is the paint match for Anthracite on a deck lid spoiler from the ebay vendor - Xenon Specialist? I have read in other threads that the vendor can be a little unresponsive to emails, but he is the most affordable seller on ebay. Too bad, he has made his feedback private.

Dont buy from him, there is another eBay vendor...........spoilercompany? or something to that effect......they have bidding auctions which start at $85

I just bid and won, cost me like 110 shipped and it was worth it, they have excellent feedback, super fast shipping, and the match is OEM. You can't tell the lip spoiler is aftermarket.

Others have bought from Trim King and said that the paint match is dead on. I bought the OEM one from Hondacuraworld.com during a Group Buy for around $200+.

yep- but the poster also seemed to be concerned about non-responsive sellers. It seemed price wasn't his only concern.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. There is one from SpoilerDepot for $115 + $41 (S/H/I). Seems a little much for a piece of painted plastic. Especially when he is selling the full wing for $220 + $41 (S/H/I). What do you all think of these prices? Also, anyone have any luck with the full wing? The thought of drilling holes in my trunk scares the crap out of me!

Measure twice drill once. It nearly killed me when I had to drill my beloved SI for the rear wing. IT does add a level of emotional attachment when you do it yourself.
