Drive your G there and they will shoot the G with their color matching gun and then mix the correct color for you. My local paint store can even put the paint into a spray can for their customers. They will also have the correct clear coat spray. I have painted several of my bumpers and if you do this and take your time between coat's, it will look fine. Good luck. AGuess | ||

As soon as I found out where you damaged your bumper I went out and found the same spot. I think this has the makings of our next Treffen, sponsored by Eurotruck and Gwagen Accessories. Then I went back the next week with a friend in his LR4.

The dealer sells touch up spray paint that I used on my front bumper after welding on brackets for the license plate holder. Good match. A000 986 29 50 7167 Tiefdunkelgrau matt Well, it took 6 weeks for the spray paint cans to come from Germany through my local dealer's parts department. US28.00 for a 150 ml spray can. Ouch! | ||
