Just wondering...was there a problem with the carribean orange paint (apart from the fact I know it's not to everyone's taste)....the reason I ask is....I was looking at a carribean orange GP in a main dealers forecourt, and noticed that the front bumper looked a very slightly deeper coloured orange to the bonnet when viewed from the front of the car.
I was desperate for an orange GP, so when another one turned up which took caught my eye a little more than the previous one, I had to go for it, I have noticed the same thing with THIS car too....look at it from the front and the bumper is very very slightly darker, but view the car from the side, and the bumper matches the front wing, etc....very strange.
So does anyone know if the paint was prone to fading on the bonnet where it would get a lot of full sun...or would it point to the fact it's maybe had a new front bumper put on it....which DOES seem a co-incidence that the only two cars I have seen the same have BOTH had new bumper put on them, if thats the case.
Anyone else noticed colour inconsistencies, or is it just me?
