Need Some Help

The car i painted was the porsche gt3 and I painted it yellow. The problem I have is that I sprayed the car shell and then I sprayed the wing and side mirrors and the wing and the side mirros dont match. The shell is darker then the wing and the side mirrors.
Wut should I do, I need some advice on how to match the wing and side mirros to the car.

this used to happen to me when i first started modeling. the reason being, i would use a darker color primer on one piece, and use a lighter color on another, then try spraying both with the smae color paint, and then one piece would be a darker shade, and the other a lighter shade, im supposing this is what you did, if so, i would say sand down or strip the pain and primer off the pieces that you dont like thw color, and make sure u use the same color primer on both

All of Tamiya's yellow's will get darker the more coats or the thicker the the paint is. What I would do is put another coat on the parts that are lighter and repeat until they match the darker ones.

The only answer to this is to keep applying more coats to the lighter pieces, you will get a match eventually, the moral here is to assemble as much of the body as possible and do all your spraying at the same time to ensure consistency, good luck
