I dont think that is true. I think your service center guy is taking you for a ride

One possible explanation could be that your cars bumper was changed by the sowroom guys . Possible reasons: they dented your bumper and replaced it with that of another car. The only reasn you will have a difference in shade is if your car stands for long spells in the sun and that too after a few years.

Typically FRP parts (fibre parts) like bumpers, wheel arches, door handles etc - or basically nonmetal parts, dont display the same texture and finish of any paint on them compared to metal objects.

So, if u've noticed all FRP part like a bumper being slightly and equally off-color, then thats OK. But, if u notice differences in shades/textures etc across the same FRP part, then you've got a classic case of repainting/ replacement on that part

I am very sure they have repainted your bumper. Please talk to the Manager of that servicestation.

In my car, the bumper is little light in color (Pearl Silver) which is same change throughout the bumper. This is due to the material difference (Fiber part). But in your case if the part of bumper is gone bad, somethign is really fishy check that out.

im gonna screw that dealer.
i think i should ask for a replacement of the bumper!!!!

Start by asking a new car, they will replace the bumper for sure

Another possible reason could be the light shade. Once I really got confused when I saw two red swifts standing perpendicular to each other. For me it appeared to be two different colors. I changed my view position and found it to be of same (almost).

Also once felt the fender and the bonnet in different colors (red color car) & the same thing, adjusted the view position and that gave me a different perception on color shades
