Painting a bumper though is not rocket science. It can be done in your driveway and look ok. A paint booth will (usually) give a better result.
OP, if you have never painted any car parts before, I would suggest finding someone with experience to help you.

I did notice that even from the factory, the bumper was a slightly different shade of red, but nobody else would notice if they weren't staring at it intensely, that's fine for me. I used to paint polycarbonate bodies for RC cars so I know the concept and some techniques with spray cans, but I've never painted a car, its just a couple spots anyways.
