tallshorty, I too had someone hit the rear bumper of my car. I took it to a BMW Certified collision repair facility. I am very particular about my car as are most of the people on this forum and cannot tell the difference since it's been repainted. The repair facility did an excellent job on it and I'm very happy. When I expressed my concerns about the paint matching, they assured me that it would be as good and new, if not better. They did mention, in general, something about the paint on a bumper could be slightly different than that on the body due to different surfaces. I certainly agree with the poster who stated that if you're not happy, make them do it again. The repair facility I used offers such guarantees. My F10 is Deep Sea Blue, so it would be noticeable I think if the color was off, even a little bit.
