Took delivery...didn't notice the paint doesn't exactly match. Am I screwed?

I actually yanked this photo from @ GTPony24, but it's the exact same issue on my car. My rear bumper, and lower...side skirt area don't match the colour of the door and the rear quarter panel. I didn't notice at delivery. I picked it up around 5:30 and it's hard to see unless it's in direct sunlight.

Do I have any chance of taking this back to the dealership? I guess it doesn't hurt to ask. Just thought I'd check and see what the forum thinks.

I would certainly try! I don't know how mismatched paint panels come from the factory like that. Y'all are just illustrating the fact that I am going over my car with a fine toothed comb. I think you have a case. If the dealer won't honor it hit up @Ford Motor Company on this site.

having the plastic parts not be an exact match to the metal parts is not an uncommon issue the Mustangs. I had a similar issue on my FJG Mach1. There have been numerous post about this issue since 2015.

Lol learn from my mistake - Get it in direct sunlight and try to pick it up between 11:00-2:00
