Just wondering if I swap parts with another black gt, would the colors match up. If they were both oem Ford parts painted from where ever they build these cars? I need to swap a sideskirt and a front pass. fender. My car is black so I would assume it would match up and no one would be able to notice that its a different fender or am I wrong. Cause my last car I wrecked and the body shop repainted it. I thought it looked good and matched, but when I traded it the guy looking at it new immediately it had been in an accident and been repainted..it had a clean carfax history report too. Whats your opinions?

Should be ok if its just black. Oddly enough, all the automakers use the same shade of black, so I would assume it would be OK.

If it's a oem part it'll match,what the guy at the dealer probably saw was a bondo or primer ring or dirt nib's. not all black is the same.

There are ways to tell that a car has been painted, like overspray and tape edges among others. But black OEM parts should match if they aren't old and faded.

some time each black is a shade off so be carefull b/c even tho its the same color its not the same can and each can can be off a little

The guy at the body shop that I'm getting my car fixed and painted at said that there are actually a couple different shades of black that ford uses.
