First picture shows it better. It's subtle but there. Could always refund it I guess.

The first pic shows it better. The band has a slightly more greyish tint than the face part.

I can see what you are talking about, but it doesnt look all that bad to be honest.

different substrates show colour differently and there isn't much you can do. I've had to explain this to account people over and over because their clients don't understand why creative on matte stock looks different than creative on gloss stock.
just had the most annoying phone call with my mother in-law's ISP that I hung up on the fool.

Some lady didn't see me (in my Alfa) waiting for the red light and hit me from behind. Not too much damage though. Probably a new back bumper and some paintwork. But still, my car is my second girl

That sucks Rob!

Damn Rob, hope you two are alright. Pisses me off when somebody does some stupid shit like that, a situation where you are at 0% fault (not even a case of going too fast, dodgy parking, etc..).
RE: Things that make your blood boil -

We are both oke. I'd rather have this than people who hit my parked car and don't leave a fucking note. That happened to me a couple of times too.

What Alfa are you driving Robert? Love 'em.
I'm working my way up to a Brera - always driven Italian since my first Fiat Panda.
At the moment it's a Grande Punto.

That sucks Rob! Glad you're ok. Good you mentioned the parked car collisions.. the passenger side door of my first car, a '72 B Kadett Rallye was damaged to hell by such "blind driver" while I was in a grocery store getting some beer back in '97. No note or anything was left. How great! It happened just a few days after the car had got a brand new scarlet paint job after I had been working on the car for ages.
Why are they allowing blind and ignorant people to drive?

I know Grimmy, the first time someone ran into my car (was my first car) it was a fuckin drugdealer/junkie. No note offcourse. Some people saw it and gave me his licenseplate number. The bastard had to go to court and had to pay all of the damage. But offcourse he didn't do it because he had no job and no money. After 2 years I received by money.
GeeBee, what Alfa do you think I drive
Look at my username
An Alfa 147 offcourse. This is my Bella:
I own this car for 3 years now. A Brera is very nice too GeeBee. I got a kid so that's no option for me. I always wanted the GT but that's not really a family car either. But a Grande Punto is very nice car too.

Bad luck, Robert. At least you have your health.
