Wicked White JDM Bumper

So after 7 years and 3 Evo's later......

I have finally acquired another wicked white Evo,and I have Always wanted a JDM bumper .

But unfortunately they no longer come prepainted, and I am not sure what color to paint the "diffuser"

I have seen in multiple threads that the diffuser should be eisen grey, but most white Evo's that I see look to be black?

Are my eyes deceiving me? Is it dark grey, or black?

If anyone has high-res photos to share, please do as the bumper is en-route

Thanks

Typically, you just leave that section unpainted. It comes in a dark grey color.

The first attachment appears to be black... Although it is far away.


The second is a different car.... Although close up you can definitely tell that it is dark grey... Most likely Eisen

The lower section is Eisen Gray. I just had my bumper painted white with Eisen Gray on the diffuser area and it looks great.

I just had the body shop copy the gray from the tow hook cover as close as they can and paint the lower part. looks great. Think they used a gm paint code. cant tell the difference side by side.

It might be a dark grey but definitely not graphite grey. There's clearly a contrast in color on the graphite grey bumpers and the diffuser, and Mitsubishi isn't going to use different diffuser paint colors depending on the car's exterior color.
