As a former paint guy (on the production side not the application side) I can take 3 guess as to what happened. 1) The formula they use can not be scaled down properly to make one aerosol can. Probably a pint or quart formula. 2) The base product they use is different from what your painter used and so it is never going to match perfectly (but honestly that color is pretty far off for that to be the issue IMO). 3) The guy mixing up the color was careless and added too much color. Number 3 is my vote.

on the lip paint, it was probably the clear coat that turned it yellow, that's if it was a laquer-based clear coat. Touch-up direct paint is great, and water based, then I would go over it with spray max 2k clear, which is a legit clear coat with an activator in the bottom that you puncture and mix before spraying its the real deal.
(Just make sure to wear a respirator when using a real deal clear with an activator.)

Yes, That was fun! We feel the same, never want to give up our Integra due to its visceral driving experience... A king - pure driving pleasure. At the same time my wife wont part with her Civic, because its such a comfortable car for road trips. Even with go faster parts, the Civic holds tight to the feeling of the GT cars of old - capable, fun, and refined. Two different cars with their own personalities, strengths and attributes - You did a great job of showing these two cars, as always, looking forward to what's next.
