Front bumper may be injection moulded, like alot of mazda's etc.. paint takes differently to the plastic rather than the metal blah blah... i think anyway, don't hold me to it though.
Yeah ure almost spot on.Cause manufacturers are using different types of 'hybrid' plastics they never seem to match atall!! Ive seen myself paint a car and never had the bumpers or spoilers look the same.We re-shelled an escort one time and once i painted it all the owner of the company came down and flipped sayin 'did u use diff paint for the bumpers!!' and i was like no its just the way ford are making the bumpers now.

Pain in the ass if you ask me
