Default lltek

anyone do the matchpaint program from lltek?? just wondering how the quality is. I live quite aways away from any good body shop so that would be easier for me but if the quality is not excellent i'll go the extra distance.

Default I don't know how it is now, but...>

Years ago they did my rear spoiler and light covers. Match and quality was perfect and continues to look great.

Default lltek is not going to match color well...lltek is a good firm but..

...better off pulling to a local BS...i saw their operations when i was up in montreal and was impressed...but that's an area of weakness...as far as their other offering they are stellar...

...No shop can remote match paint that's new vs. partially faded

i would recommend them for other stuff...or go ahead if your color sensitivity is low.

Default Re: lltek

I have bought numerous items from them...Caractere grill, front spoiler, rear lower valence and side enhancers. All painted to perfection. The match was right on the money. I have a brilliant black coupe and the new parts look identical to factory color. My experience tells me that you can buy from them with confidence.

I have been told that black is the easiest to match...

Default LIES!!

Easiest to match poorly. Most difficult to match exactly. ;-)

Default They did a terrific match for me...

My Uberhaus aero side flaps are from them. The paint color match and finish are excellent.

I have a spare front license panel installed. I had it painted by a body shop recommended by the Audi dealer. Color match is slightly off.

The flaps I got from LLtek are a spot-on match and even better finish than the front panel.

Just give them the correct color code for your paint. My experience with them was just fine...

Default It just depends on how old your car is. Schwing had his done when it was near new.

There are also always variations in the factory colors as well. Probably moreso for certain colors (Aviator seems a bit notorious, I would imagine UPS might be difficult too ;^) ).

Yup...very often black isn't exactly black. Though, does black fade like some other colors?
