Maui Blue Paint Problem!

Hey guys, I just went and bout a quart of Maui Blue (WA-9537) on my 89 Firebird Formula and also some clear coat. My buddy sprayed the front bumper and the new GFX's I'm putting on. I just got the TA bumper on and noticed that it is slightly off. Its a lil brighter than I it should be. I heard there was actually two diffrent Maui Blue's by GM for f-bodies. Is it possible I got the wrong paint or is it just that its new paint and may have been prepped diffrently. The car was actually painted a few years ago up in canada before I bout it, theres also a possibility that they put the darked maui on than the one I recently bout. It not really going to matter cause I only payed 75bucks to gets all the stuff sprayed and 120 in materials. What you guys think?

Also I'll get pics of the 91 TA GFX's on the car with the 89 TA front bumper on soon too. I think I will be the first for a maui blue mutant hehe:lala:

Actually 3 diffrent maui blue paint tints. My buddy mixed up a small bit of each to compare to get the right shade.
