Meteor,
If you decide to re-spray the bumpers, I would have clear documentation as of why and when the work was preformed. Might be handy during the sell of your car.

The application of the clear film on the front bumper cover will amplify the color mismatch. It will increase the yellow hue. The factory and/or port may have spot painted the front bumper cover. My front and rear bumper cover on my 2015 white GT3 match.

Part of the reason for this is the bumpers are painted by a supplier, not by Porsche.I was at the factory and saw it. They come in already painted.

Forgive me for what seems like a dumb question but should it not be the same type/quality/colour paint the supplier uses?
