Default Got hit in the back, need repair advice

Rigth after work some idiot hit me in the back. Not a big damage, so no use calling insurance, but I still have a dent in my bumper from his massive license plate's frame and my precious torched penny color paint was chipped of a little. And the guy willing to pay for repair. But I'm concerned about an outcome of paint job even in the good body paint shop. The reason for that is mentioned above color, as u know it's the several tones cameleon color. And it will be hard to fix the scratches seamlessly so it will match the rest of the body paint.
So my questions are:
1. Has anyone had the same situation with RS4.0 paint color?
2. And if someone did , please let me know all the details and how your repair turned out paintwise?
3. any suggestion at all







Thanx [/img]

It can be matched just like the other Scion paint. You should also have him pay for another bumper applique since your old one will need removal before the repair is done. Good luck and keep us posted of how the repairs turn out.
