Glad you didn't end up with it.
It will take time to find the perfect one. My pearl white bumpers are a shade off but it's not from an accident, it's the common issue that nissan can't match paint.
I heard dealers do not have to disclose repairs made to a vehicle if the damage is 3K or under??? I forgot the exact # but it sounds like the damage on that one you looked at is much more than 3K unless they did a cheap body job on it.
I am very paranoid myself and actually a good way to tell if a car's been repainted is feel the lines inside the door jams, bumpers, fenders etc... Typically when they tape of sections for repaint, it's not smooth and you feel that transition from the tape to the repainted surface.... I actually did that to every single panel before I thought about deposits or signing anything!
haha took me 30mins to do it but well worth it for peace of mind on the purchase.
