it is different. i got the satin silver on my car. my spoiler is prepainted by wingswest, and the color is kinda off like that, espeically in pictures. face to face, the wing doesnt stand out like that, but in pictures, it stands out a lot.

my urthane octane bumper also got the same effect, it was painted with the same paint as my side/rear, but the front is slight lighter then the side and rear....

my bodyshop say it's impossible to get the same mixture of sparkles compared to the silver paint, you can either end up with too many or too little. the dull color is because lack of the sparkles....
