RS5 Front Bumper color question

[Omegahare]

Does anyone know what color the alu silver spoiler is on the bottom of some RS5 bumpers? I'm interested in getting a Comp+ bumper on a white FL S5 with the same silver bottom piece. Ty

Guessing it's the same as the alu-optic parts on our cars. Don't know if there's a paint code out there.

When I replaced my bumper I just used duplicolor universal silver metallic and followed up with a good clear coat and I am happy with the results. Hope this helps.

Thank you jmcdermott for your reply but I will need the whole bumper painted and it'll be glacier white metallic which isn't a color I can duplicolor and Id like the entire bottom spoiler to be silver so I was hoping I could tell the shop what color code that would be. Anyone else have this kind of work done before?

Also non of the collision shops will do estimates over the phone and my car won't be out of storage for another 3 weeks or so. What do you guys think it'll cost to have a front bumper painted. Probably have to be sanded and primed.

Sorry, I misunderstood your question. The body shop I used was $500 for bumper itself and charged an extra$50 for the lower spoiler since it was a separate piece and it was painted same color. This price was paint only, no mounting or unmounting. I also provided the old tow hook cover for a reference to match paint. Like I mentioned earlier I painted the silver strip myself to save a little money. Also another thing you might want to do after you get bumper back from paint is to use flat black paint to spray the lower middle area of grill to make it look oem.

i mean I don't think an alum optic is a color, so I don't think theres a color code for that. ur best bet is to find a silver you like off a car and give them that colorcode. don't think it can be replicated but I could be wrong

as for prep prime paint its usuallly 450 around here
