Default is this normal for the frt bumper????

My front bumper is a lighter color then the rest of the car. It is a dark green. Also a guy said he could touch it up for me as far as teh rock chips. I need the color code to a 97 dark green integra thanks.

i know the bumper is a diff. material ten the fenders and hood, so that could be a problem.
Your paint code is on the drives inner door frame, it should say something like "paitn"

If the decal was removed, it was probably resprayed...thats odd.

Go to http://www.paintscratch.com to see the code.

As for the bumpers being different, they are. The fenders/hood is metal while the bumpers are urethane. Many times with darker colors, the urethane parts fade faster than the body panels. Fading is definitely a problem, especially with older dark cars...sounds normal to me. Although the decal should for sure be in the door...if not, I dont see any other reason other than a repaint.
