Danzero - thats what i was looking for -sry Jimbo I have to disagree on this one - yes I know the later ones offered color match to body paint but even the early ones are painted. my 03 original bumper covers were a mess in the front where the paint had been scratched to the plastic underneath...I had to get the touch up paint Dark Gray (Allroad Bumper) LV7W/7F. I think some Highland green AR's have a different code though.

I'm pretty sure the "bland gray" bumper colour is actually painted, since where it is chipped, the plastic is white.

It's such a shame to scratch such a beautiful car! On the bright side, the damage is minimal and I'm sure it will back to showroom condition in no time.
