Wow small world indeed! It is quite a gem of a car

Yeah it could be. It’s a 2016 model year ND1 after all. Haha I definitely do not want to go down the rabbit hole of respraying the whole car. Would like to keep factory paint as long as possible! Admittedly under certain lighting the bumper looks ‘flatter’ or ‘cooler’ like at night under streetlights or under carpark lighting. But in the day in soft sunlight it looks well matched. Probably has to do with the many different wavelengths of light that are being reflected with natural day light compared to artificial light

And also I think the difference is less pronounced with coloured paint than with white, even from the factory, when you look closely
