No dealer can gaurantee a paint match on that color, it is just that the ARE dealer was up front and told you that they couldn't and the Leer dealer just lied and told you what you wanted to hear to make the sell.
I ordered one, an ARE, for a customer here and told them that the color may be off and told them the reason why. The cover came in and I installed it and it is as close a color match and you could ever wish for, the customer is more than satisfied and said they can't tell any difference at all.
Even talking to four different professional shops around here, one of which has a personal streetrod painted this color, none were interested in painting the cover if I ordered it primered to try and get a better match. All of them said the same thing there are to many variables that can cause a mismatch.
