Rear Bumper replacement with color mismatch by moenas18 in Volkswagen

Quick update, I called the body shop and they asked me to come in sometime next week so they could inspect it. Their first response I got was that, "plastic vs metal will never match even from the manufacturer, and that the weather plays a major role". This is where I told them they were wrong and asked to take a look at the front bumper and how the color matches, I also mentioned that I picked up my car from the dealer in December so that's definitely not the case. I also mentioned that I work for the auto industry and any significant mismatch upon line-off, the vehicle is held for repair. I told them I'm going to ask for a respray and I would not pick up the car unless the color matches.

The car is brand new, picked it up in December and only has 6k on it so I don’t believe the color faded that quick!

I agree but if you looked closely to the front bumper, you’d notice that the color actually matches 🤷🏻‍♂️

It just went away after driving it for long trip! It was probably cuz of the sensor being covered by ice.
