Yeah dude it def is a tad lighter.. I even said that to my body guy and he said it's prob cuz it's plastic.. Im thinking about gettin it repainted from some1 else to see if it could match better.. But idk kinda nervous to spend the money for it to come out the same way or worse.. Its not that bad but atleast I'm not crazy and not the only1 who noticed it

Does the shop not have a warranty? I mean you told them to paint it the same color as the rest of the car (I'm assuming) Id take it back and tell them to get it right. In a nice way, but still you paid for a service and it should be done correctly.

Actually if it was initially white before it was sprayed, than maybe a second coat is exactly what it needs to darken for a match. I've had it happen to me before on my other ride and I've also gotten perfect color matching with plastic and fiberglass, and fiberglass can be tricky since it normally absorbs some of the base coat. Last plastic shoulded have anything to do with it and I'd have them fix it since it's not right! Bumper still looks great though!!!

Thanks I think I'm gonna have to do that and get it right

SnoopyAce7 · 12-05-2011, 11:45 AM

i've heard of quite a few RJT's and (i think) IBM's with the bumper having a slightly different shade I think b/c of the material? But your ride looks sweet. Pretty custom looking. You should put it in some local shows! I really like the carbon fiber on the hood

Oh yeah what temperature HIDs? I have 6k's

v6needluv2 · 12-05-2011, 11:49 AM

SSTG · 12-05-2011, 12:03 PM
