Am I crazy or....

When I got this car it was said to have never been into an accident, also that it was owned by the co-president of Jenkins Acura, although I can clearly see that he does not know how to take care of his car. Anyway, the car has small dents on the car and I swear I am seeing two different colors on the car. I'm not sure if you can see it through the picture but has anyone else received this problem? And I also washed this car and everything today.

The color variation has been discussed on these forums, particularly on the white cars. Apparently, the color varies from the metal body parts and the plastic bumper parts.

Yeah, my WDP doesn't look so pretty :/, At this point I'm not sure what I should do. Switch it out for the 2013 using the Loyalty reward or get a paint job.

^^YUP^^

I really notice this a lot on silver cars (not just Acura) but especially on the MDX’s.

If you ever see a silver MDX in the sun notice how much the front bumper where it wraps and meets the front fender doesn’t match…It is very obvious and would drive me nuts..
