Default Body Kits

Couldn't find same question so I want to ask. I found a body kit I really like. If I buy it, do I have to repaint my whole car? I don't want to do that but I would like the kit to be the same color as my car.:??:

Well matching colors can be hard, but a reputable shop should be able to make it work. Just get the right paint code for whatever color. P.S. what kit do you really like?

I like the Razzi 547-100 or the Erebuni 738. I have a silver 05 but I dont want to have to repaint. Can I give a paint shop the paint code and install it after in has been painted?

What the body shop can do is find the color that's closest to a match and then blend it in with your current paint. They'll install the body kit, and then paint it along with the adjacent panel so that there's no hard edge of new paint.
