Been toying with the idea of a rear LCI conversion for some time now and found a local trunk lid and lights for a steal of a deal, in Montego blue! My cars an 07 and the potential donor is an 09. If I'd have to get it painted, it's not worth it to me. Is it likely to match or being that it's seen two less years of exposure and it's just a different batch of paint will it look different?
Thanks!

I'm not sure if serious but since it's local just go there with your car and see it for yourself.

Well by local I mean close enough to drive vs. ship. That's the plan, I just don't know if I should expect it to match or if that's unrealistic. Never done anything like this before. Both are original paint so I'd imagine if its the latter it wouldn't be noticeable til it was installed and lined up on my car.

If it's off, it'll be off like 5%

I took my friend's space grey parts from his 2012 and transplanted it on my 2009. Not too far off. Not noticeable unless you really stare at the body panel for a minute or two

Installed the trunk today and it's a 100% perfect match! Cannot decipher a difference in any light. Happy as can be
