countertop fabrication question

I am having Pental quartz countertops installed in my kitchen next week. Question for anyone who has had this done -- is it important to make sure that the adhesive that the fabricator uses is color-matched to the quartz countertop color?

There is a company called Altima Adhesives which sells adhesive and has a chart to match every single countertop selection with an adhesive color in their inventory.

When I read the Pental quartz installation manual, they don't even mention this. However, the Cambria quartz installation manual makes a big deal that this has to be done.

I've gone on some tradesman forums where nearly all the fabricators say they just use stock white, grey or black and don't bother with a custom match.

Does anyone think it makes a difference?
