While I agree you should take it back as it is way off but it will be hard to match paint regardless. Heck, even if damage is on the metal surfaces as well, 8-9x of 10, the paint won't match due to it being different materials. However, any self respecting true painter doesn't want to have to do things more than once so they will spray anywhere from 3-5 different test panels just to get the closest one.
Anyone that says it will match perfectly, go to any Toyota/ford/Lexus/Mercedes/etc, look carefully at any and most colors on the lot, you will find that even from the factory, the paint won't match 100% from any metal surface vs the bumper/plastic pieces. That is why when vehicles age and the moldings start to discolor before most metal parts.
Also, regardless of ANY shop you take it to, for any repairs, they will use bondo, it's just a matter of how thick they lay it on and sand it back down. Even brand new cars and their panels may have "bondo" to remove any imperfections in the stamping/production process.
