I am trying to buy a front bumper for my lexus ES350, Cashmere satin finish. I asked if it could be shipped to my local Carruba Collision. Then would it be better to buy a primed bumer and have it painted there? One of the Reve workers talked about how the color shading at Reve is based on the year of the vehicle etc. Am I covered by this if it doesnt match when it gets here?

^^^ That aside, why not ask the supplier (Reve??) your question?

In any event, most shops would prefer all prep done at their own shop, including sanding and priming. Almost any primered part will need finish sanding and re-priming anyhow for them to stand by their work after the fact.
