Default anyone here used UPOLs tintable raptor liner?

can anyone here who has used the tintable version of the raptor liner speak to how well the color matches?

im going to be taking the plunge here shortly and i cant decide on the black or tintable. ive got an 01 silver XJ and wanna match the liner to my factory paint... if its worth it. if its a super PITA then ill just shoot the black on there, but i would much prefer a match.

i have heard that the bottles arent even big enough to fit UPOLs recommended amount of tint base and hardener...? and that guys are mixing the stuff in a different container and then pouring it back into the UPOL bottles to shoot it on.

im going to be coating my lower doors / rockers, the pinch seam up to the frame rails, rear quarter lowers, the bumper endcaps (all 4), bumpers, inner fenders, and possibly the roof. this is all set to take place the week of July 11th - 15th.

i suppose that there may not be many that have used the tintable, and even less that did and tried to match to the factory color. if anyone has any experience or resource for more info i would greatly appreciate it.
