NIA and CWEST Warnings for Subaru WRB color

NIA Splitter and CWEST Side Skirts don't quite match the original color of the car. She's a 2015.

The color on the CWEST and NIB kit that came "pre" painted from the factory were just a few shades lighter compared to the vehicle itself.

Had I known I would have just ordered the parts in black or picked up stock (saving money) and just covered with 3M carbon fiber or some other color.

Lesson Learned

Did you get the right Color? 2013/2014 FR-S "Whiteout" is 37J. The 2015+ FR-S white "Halo" is a different color K1X.

Ordered both kits in World Rally Blue 02C. Looks like that's the 2013 color. The 2015 is K7X even though they are still called World Rally Blue.

Cant order the parts in that color. Good looking out man. Looks like the over-site was mine.

Guess I will get a pint of K7X mixed. O well.

Yeah, definitely have to pay attention to actual paint code when ordering things like that!
