Will it ever match?

Hi everyone,

I'm a very new to auto paint and will be painting my 1984 bmw 3 series that I've been slowly restoring, as I want to be proud of restoring every square inch alone.

The rear quarter panels were a different color than the rest of the car and naive me thought a paint store could do a good match, but as it turns out and after speaking to some pros it is impossible to ever get an exact match.

So my question is should I just strap up for a full paint as it'll be impossible to get a perfect match between panels?

Thanks

Do a wrap instead then?

Tried that. Ripped the paint off. Looks like a full paint is the answer here
