Bumper Paint Fading?
I just bought a 1998 SC400 and the rear bumper is several shades different(darker?) than the rest of the car. Could this be from the sun? Is this a common problem with these cars? The carfax was clean with no accidents and the lines are all perfectly straight. It's just bothering me and I hope it didn't get hit and replaced...

I should have updated this thread sooner. I ended up finding out that it was in fact repainted. They claimed that it was due to fading and it was never hit. I am hesitant to believe that but I like the car so much it's whatever even if it was. There is no accident history and the inner trunk doesn't look tampered with. Good enough for me.
