About 5 weeks ago my car was sexually molested from behind by a dirty dodge neon. Because of this my rear bumper had to be replaced. I also had to replace my joe z exhaust. this process took 3 lonely weeks. I had the lexus dealer do the work. They did a great job except for one thing. The color of the bumper doesnt quite match the rest of the car. The car is white. So now i have a bumper that looks a lil off from the rest of the car.

I dont think it is really noticeable unless your are the owner, or you kno where to look. But being the owner it is killing me. I already have the rear diffuser painted black, but know im thinking about painting the whole bumper black, but im not sure it will look good.

Does anyone ever seen a isf with the whole bumper painted? Thanks for any help

I would take it back to Lexus and have the bumper repainted. I know this is more time away from your car but they should be willing to give you a loaner and take care of it for free.

yea, any fix that your insurance was involved in should be lifetime fix too. i had them retry a wheel three time before they just bought a new one.

Also, starfire pearl is actually a mix of two shades, the base white and the pearl that gets sprayed on after (per my lexus dealer) so it's not like they just sprayed on 1 color and it doesn't match.

Thats not even close. It seems they painted it crystal white instead of SFP
