If you're in a bit of a rush follow the advice given by TheBig1, or you can try contacting Hymer.

The colour of the front bumper is called Hymer Graumetallic A 9233. It is a special colour that can only be obtained from a Hymer dealer.
But.....
Hymer Graumetallic A 9233 and BMW salmon-silver metallic paint (RAL9007) is supposed to be quite similar.
Have fun!

We used vinyl spraypaint from halfords
for ours sanded primed and then top coat
looks good as ours was a mess when we
got the hymer flaking and patchy someone had put a unsuitable paint on we found this is good hope you get sorted .

I had to have the front one done a few years ago. I went to a local bodywork specialist, armed with the paint code that I had got from Brownhills. When I went to collect the repair, my man said it was not a code recognised by the paint manufacturers he bought from and he simply matched the colour anyway!

Thanks Mike, will be interested in the result.
My bumpers have really suffered from blistering in the sun, mainly the rear but the front is starting to go as well & will want sorting in the next year.
I don't know how much you intend to repaint but as a guide, a 400 ml spray can is not enough really if you intend painting the whole thing.
I thought 1 x 400 ml can would be enough but as my rear bumper is in 2 sections I tackled them individually, when I did the second one I could have done with a bit more paint.
As I colour matched it from a card it's not perfect. So when I do it again I'll get a couple of cans.
I bought 2 pack paint that is really good & once the top clear coat is on looks almost professional.
A couple of photos of before & during.
Regards.
Barrie.

Hi, did you ever get a decent paint match for you Hymer bumper ?
The laquer on my front bumper has deteriorated quite quickly recently and I`d like to see if I can repair it.

alas no match was found only nearly so gave up and put a funster sticker over it i think you will get a fair match if you spray the whole panel but not just a bit of a panel. there were nearly 80 hymers at the agm last week i think there were 80 shades of grey skirts . best of luck
