Gauge background, radio bezel, console plate, etc. Color?

It's hard to see the right color because time and light/sun have changed the shades. Some have more yellow and some more red. Correct might be radio bezel (less sun).
1. Should all gauge background plate, radio bezel, console plate be exact same matte fawn?
2. Should Steering Column and Glove Box Door (inside) be exact same shiny fawn?

I have gone through all the parts with the original paint and the areas that have not been affected by the sun. I'm convinced that the parts are painted in different places and that's why the shades are different. That is, there is no single color tone definition. Just some are darker or lighter and some are matte.

Makes sense.

Fawn or light beige is a very difficult color to make and control the shade. A very small drop of black, red or yellow makes a big difference. Especially when you're trying to make small quantities. If you give the recipe to a different manufacturer, the end results might be different.
