Is It Normal for Bottom Crowns to Be Darker Than Top Crowns?

Jeddah
All my teeth have been crowned (all zirconia/ porcelain) by a cosmetic dentist.The color is a perfect match except for 4 front bottom teeth which are noticeably darker than the other crowns.The dentist says this is normal because the material is thinner on these teeth, but as I asked that all my crowns match perfectly, should he not have compensated for this when making the crowns? He says I must pay again for 4 new lighter crowns! Is this fair?
