Paint on plastic looks different from paint on metal. Shine a bright flashlight on your front/rear bumper and compare the color match to the fenders. I guarantee they will not match and that's a paint job coming from the factory.
Yes but ... aren't the new plastic parts mounted on to the plastic bumpers ... so it's plastic against plastic. I've had another look at the photos and both the front and back look way off, I hope it is just the photos, as to me they don't look like they belong on that car from the pictures.

I actually like the roof spoiler. How about getting the Hamann trunk spoiler and sideskirts as well to round out the package?

Your beast looks beautiful!

Actually, Hamann parts are fiberglass... so that would inherently give it another hue of white.

Nice job indeed, i really like your agressive looking front, although i'm not really fond of the back...
Good luck with it!
