replaced my front bumper

I had to replace a cracked front bumper. I didn't expect a perfect color match since my tsx is 2 years old now, but I wasn't expecting this big of a difference. Guess there's not a whole lot I can do?

Damn I wonder if the bodyshop you took it to color matched it correctly?

No man.. they didnt match that color.. or they rushed your job and didnt water sand the clear.. get that redone.. I have a four year old Satin Silver Metallic.. one of the hardest colors to match and my shop gets it pretty damn close.. but what you got there.. no way.. take it back.

I had my bumper replaced ('06 ASM) and the color match was nearly perfect. Take it back and have them fix it

Of course there's a lot you can do. You paid to have the bumber painted the color of your car.

They failed.


They fix!
