2) it looks darker because the clear coat that they used has a very slight yellow tint to it
3) only way to match all 3 parts is to repaint the hood and fender as well

He told me there is nothing he can do to match the paint perfectly.

Is this true? He does not sound like he is going to repaint my bumper again...what else can I do?
