Attention AW owners...

Anyone notice a slight color difference between the bumpers and the body?

No variation here, but others have asked the same question here about 5+ months ago.

Its not unusual for paint to have a different color when applied to plastic versus metal. I don't know why (it's an opaque coating right?). But I notice this effect on many cars. Fortunately, I don't have it on mine
