Question Colour Mismatch (??)

Hi, I've a Indigo Blue Pearl TSX and just discovered something today. I found that the colour on the rear bumper is slightly off compare to the rest of them body (especially under bright sunlight). When I asked the service people at an Acura dealer, they told me that all Acuras have that problem and showed me some "examples" (RSX, TSX, and TL). Any comment and/or advice?

alot of cars have that problem. its bc the bumpers are a different material, so the paint will cure differently. only on certain colors will u notice the difference.

i had a silver audi and had the same problem. the front and back bumpers were slightly darker. it never bothered me though.

I did notice that when I was washing my TSX. But it's not obvious at all.
