It required a special process, and bumpers were all matched individually by hand/eye.

Default I've read that it was very temperature sensitive during the painting stages

Not sure of the truthfullness of this info... but I've read it.

Default Well body shops have coniption fits when trying to repair them. Special ordering pearl white not

only cost more, but usually took longer than other custom orders too.

I hear it got dropped when Audi revamped the last of their paint facilities, and it was no longer feasible to offer it.
