I am somewhat reluctant to do it though, for various reasons so I was looking for feedback from anyone that has repainted a front bumper. Curious if paint will match, worried about car fax, then I gotta have the clear bra put back on it, which Nissan will cover. Guess I am trying to educate myself before making a decision.
Is the color PW? It is gonna be hard to match being a 3 stage paint. I suppose if the shop would guarantee the match, get it repainted. Otherwise I would try dr color chip or something similar first and see if your are happy with it. Then get the dealer to compensate you financially.

IMO, it would look terrible if the paint doesn't match. The bumper is big and be very noticeable from afar. GL.
