Replacement rim a darker color than the rest?

Ok,

so today i had to take my 07 tl-s to get looked at because there was a tire that would always go flat for some odd reason.

We found that one of the rims was indeed bent. So, i had to have it replaced. But when they replaced it, it is a darker color than my other three.

Any reason?

Did the 07/08's wheel color differ a little?

*note, these are the stock tl-s wheels*

Post a pic. What did the dealer say when you told them?

there are going to be variations in shades depending on when the wheel was made. this happens with aftermarket rims as well. different batches made at different times not finished with the exact shade even though technically its the same color. only way to match them...four new wheels manufactured at the same time from the same batch. unless someone else has another suggestion to get the wheel to match the other three??

also your other three are older so they might have faded a little too.
