I would like it much better if the blonde hair tones matched the fluff white (so they probably should have used a white base wig).

You probably could splice 2 lace fronts but doing so would have a small seam right down the middle, which would probably be visible to some degree.
I would still recommend that to dying one, however! If you had to dye a lace front that close to the scalp it probably stain the lace and make it super visible since it won't be skin toned anymore (ie, ruining the whole reason you 'd use a lace front in the first place).
Also, since you are new to multicolor wigs I'm going to mention that wigs do not dye in the same way that human hair does. Wigs are made of plastic fibers and so you aren't really -dying- them, so much as staining the plastic (with various methods like sharpie baths/hand coloring, fabric dyes on heat resistant wigs and other methods). As such, getting a true black is pretty much impossible unless you are planning to hand color the entire area with black sharpie/copics (and even "black" sharpies are more of a super concentrated purple so you'd need serious saturation to get it looking "black"). It does look like these gulls are talking about idye black though, if you still want to risk ruining the lace.

They said they aren't good at styling so I don't recommend the Cady, they'd have to fig out how to reverse the direction the entire wig lays (since his hair slicks forward and the Cady slicks back).

Epic Cosplay Wigs has a style that would work very well for this, with very minimal styling: the Hermes in Silvery Grey (pic related is the style). I've used this wig before in a different shade for a costume for my bf and the front area already sticks up very close to Silas' hair. I had to use a straightener to curve it back down but you could do the opposite and use one to flip the rest of the hair upwards.
