Tornado red bumper colour
Andy:
Same as pearl black LC9Ž I got told thier is 25 different types of shade due to the speckles in the paint
chrisenright:
This happens because these parts (bumpers, mirror caps, spoilers, side mouldings etc), whilst body coloured, are not painted in the same factory as the body shells.
Rather, they are supplied to the main assembly factory painted and 'ready to fit' by other manufacturers on a just-in-time basis.
The fact that they are even closely matching is an achievement.
DBXdarkangel:
Never noticed a difference on mine.
