Two Different Shades

I got back to my 2NR Stang a couple days ago. After an unsuccessful attempt at trying to make my own CF decals and use them on the hood, I decided to paint it the same color as the body. The only problem with that is they aren't being painted at the same time. I thought I had the same amount of coats on the hood as the body (I think the body is about as dark as telefonica blue gets), but apparently it's not the case. I've already clear coated the hood, and it's definately lighter. Do you all think it would be alright to spray some more blue over the clearcoat to darken it, or should I sand it back down and start again?

when i painted my rs focus ts51, i noticed the stuff i did last (towards the end of the can) had more of a shine than the stuff i did first and it looked darker. It wasnt enough for me to start over though.

the body finished one can, as I'd also used it for a Suzuki Race bike too. The hood was done with a new can.
