color match

Its been a couple months now that I have put on my gemballa front bumper and aero sides, and just recently i got the entire front clear bra. But I realized that my newly painted parts dont exactly match my car. My painted items are a tad lighter than the rest of the car. You cant tell in pictures or in person unless you stare for a bit. when i gave them the things to paint they got my color code for speed yellow and a part of my car ( my passenger side vent) to match it with.

anyone else have similar experiences with matching? I was told that plastic and metal will have slightly different shades when painted. the body shop at the time said that there were 2 variations of speed yellow and they used the dirtier kind.
