the underside of my front bumper is suppose to be blue (ultramarine). However its mostly black, grey, and as of this week yellow from a painted speedbump...

Long story short, who cares.

My car is white, the bottom of my bumper is black.

Thanks guys. Care much less now.

Double check the underside to make sure the little plastic push-clips are all still in place. I scraped my front on a parking bump and it popped 3 of the little push tabs out.

Always take those kerbs at an angle and slowly, so it doesn't dive.
Touch wood! 8 months and it's still perfect under there.

Could you claim for damage and encourage them to fix the problems?
When I see any that look suss I go elsewhere which is a real pain at times.
