actually they ARE shocking. particularly the fact that the mudguard is also the wrong color lmao wtf something ain't right. I suppose the mudguard was repainted as well. Call in the Photoshop crew.

When the paint shop took off the front bumper it was damaged inside. They told me it was in an accident, but when I asked the dealer to look it up they said, and showed me as well, there was nothing reported. I was told by the paint shop that this happens all the time. Not very comforting is it.

Not comforting at all.

MODS! End this thread. It's going nowhere.

Actually the plastic parts are not painted at the same time as the car (with many manufacturers) , and often at completely different facilities. They all come together at the point of assembly.....No surprise really that there may be differences.....On my car, There is a very "slight" difference in shading between my plastic side skirts and the body color..Not enough to really be of any concern.

All I'm saying is, the mudguard is the same color as the alleged off-color bumper. Again, not there, not qualified to comment. Modshack, we goin' nowhere on this, man.

LOL, no if's and's or but's, it's comin. After I get back from Mexico, leaving tomorrow for a week of sun in Cabo San Lucas.

You got it right. When they show me that car when I'm singing the papers, I'll have them bring it outside in the sun. Trust no one.

Gee, thanks. I appreciate you saying that. If anything, it is your fault it is "going nowhere". Lots of off topic ranting and rambling.
