I agree with Marlin. I think you're pretty close. You're in a dark building with a flash going off. Send me the pics, and the mixing code your guy used.
See if somebody can post some pics of Jensens fb deuce from the reunion. It's pretty close to correct except that it's deeper, and glossier because of it being bc/cc. We'll see if your mixing code is the same as ours. If not we'll send you ours. NPHNP

My guy used PPG system, OEM code 28, mixing code 2166 which consists of: M122 blue, M135 metalic, M134 violet and M117 jet black along with the clear (percentages of each color can be supplied if necessary). He used a suction gun vs gravity to disperse the metllic more evenly. How does this compare with your mixture?

We use Dupont, or Sikens. We'll see what we come up with. I'll have to talk to the painter. He's a member here, just bad Joe. Their computer is down at the shop. Otherwise we'd pm him from here.

We used the standard Dupont chroma premier formula. No tweaks, or tints on Jensen. I though I had a can around here, but Jensen has it. Will try to come up with the mixing code to compare with yours.

You have 4 toners, and so does the dupont. They check out basicly the same. Dupont code is 5124F. Maybe have a dupont jobber mix you up a pint, and do a spray out card. In house mixing can have errors. There's also some variences in the tecnique, and gun applications. Personally, I think your well in the park.
JIP, I have seen 7 Lemans blue camaros at Vettfest done by some of the best in the country, and they all were just a little bit different.
