I got a used white bumper as temp and used my good one. also had the rear powdercoated. you can also see my smoked color headlights that have bmw x5 projectors (thanks shailey on paint and armada951 on retrofit).
it's a little bit lighter than the paint. it's hard to color match auto paint. it's the same shade as my bugguard.
