Actually its direct sunlight which is where you'll miss any paint issues, white cars in particular are awful for that, in that you could miss big dents even. Top tip if you get a car back from the body shop for paint work, inspect it either indoors or on a cloudy/shaded area. The only inspection outside in direct sunlight that should be ok is checking for colour matching by simply standing back and seeing if say a door was repainted...looks like the rest of the body. If you can still see bad paint work in direct sunlight without looking even closely at it then its an extremely bad job.
I can't personally say unless I see in person to conclusively say, only a educated guess based on doing thousands of inspections. Still, its only on the polyurethane bumper, of all the components to have been affected its of the lowest concern.
