Are subaru and toyota pearl whites the same?
My swp brz hood has some larges keyed-like scratches which seem down to the metal. Instead of risking the hard to match pearl, im thinking of just buying someone elses hood (he went cf). His car is. A 2013 toyota 86 and mines a 2014 brz. Will the paint match?

Just so you know 37J has a pretty high variance and can be hard to match. There's a good chance it will be a little bit off, and a small chance it will be noticeable from a few feet away.

FWIW- I have a Halo White FRS and I matched up the paint code with someone selling a spoiler from a BRZ and they matched really well, I still have the spoiler installed.

And the year difference, in the tropical sun, could make the variance even more noticeable due to fading.

SWP is Whiteout and its 37J. And yes that is true, whiteout is slightly yellower |

My FRS is Halo. The paint code is K1x (2016) and I got a Subaru BRZ OEM spoiler (not sure year but IIRC 2015) from someone and the paint code was also K1x. Perfect match
