Do some rearch and you'll find that the front/rear bumpers don't match from the factory. As the vin is coded into the front bumber check to see if it's a match.
Got my WDP front bumper repainted a few month ago. The shop did an excellent job, so much so as there's no difference in color between the body and bumper. Only problem is that now the rear is slightly off color, but it isn't as bad as the front was.

flex additive added to the paints = color is off
