In terms of color? Yeah, the bumpers are plastic and don't quite have the same color as the metal parts of the car. You just noticing this now? Did the sun finally come out in CT?

Correct. I work for PPG as an engineer (for those of you who dont know...they make car paint among other paints) and it depends on the company. For example BMW spends a ton of money just to try and match the plastic parts to the metal parts. Subaru doesnt care as much

My front bumper matches 1000 times better now that I got it resprayed... it's actually a miracle because the hood and fenders didn't get blended.

I noticed it when I took her home, but just asked about it now, and yeah the sun finally hit the east coast this week. 😎
