@Roadrunner so that is the real reason for your colour choice, it would look so wrong in other than sparkling clean condition. Weather check each time before taking it out may be necessary. She is a beauty.
New and rather excited!!!!

hypothetically speaking........ how easy is it to get my stock bumpers colour coded.........? could i do it myself?
@KombiKommando , unless you have access to automotive paint (water based base coats and 2k primers and laquer, as well as plastic primers) then not really mate.
Easy for a shop to do it though. Might get a better price just taking the units off and then refitting after paintwork, but be careful not to scratch them. Take vehicle to them for colour match though, don't just ask for black (there's many a shade!)

Not sure if this is relevant to you but the black bumpers that come fitted are one piece bumper/grille and not the same as the factory colour coded ones that are two separate pieces
This is not really a problem but it does mean that you cannot fit the caravelle grille/DRLs/lower grille chrome strips etc if this is the road you want to go down as they are not compatible

@KombiKommando , not sure as mainly do my own paint and for friends.. New panels loose I'd charge £200 to £300 for.. That's the pair on the vehicle afterwards, I have a VERY specific way of doing bumpers that is not the norm, and my trade secret, but they NEVER peel afterwards! And are also glass smooth!
This is flat grey
what colour is this????????
or what colour is this.....?
Both of them are t5s though haven't the colours changed for the t6?
Just looked there is pure grey which I've listed as flat grey my mistake and indium which is mettalic.
