The paint store (or body shop) should have what's called an "alternate deck". This will show the different variances in each color.
The shop should then take all the alternates out to the car (which should be clean) and check them under natural sunlight or an artificial day light.
Never let them check your color under a flourescent light...it will be wrong everytime.
In the case of kerplunk his car is darker and yellower than what the bumper is.
Without seeing the car in person, it looks to me like the formula they mixed had either a smaller flake and / or too much white.
Hope this info helps.
