Accident and Question about paint

Hi All,
I was in a small accident last week and my right front arch and spoiler is now scratched and damaged. Also, so paint near my right front headlight is scraped. Not a major problem because I have been wanting to get all the black trim painted Pepper White and now I have the reason to do so. My question is this: Will the paint color look different/funny since my car is now 10 months old and may have gone thru some fading? Thinking of ordering the trim pieces from minispeed.

Oh, and also, my right mirror cap was also slightly scratched and I have that painted a custom color so should I go back to my original painter to have him do it or is it ok to give my bodyshop guy the extra paint and have him do it? Will post pics tomorrow in the daylight.
