Hard to tell from the photos though but it would be an area I'd focus on when viewing it. It's normal for a car of that age to have had some cosmetic work done but I'd be more concerned around if it were something more serious and the quality of the repair.

I think its the bonnet that may be a different shade as the colour of the bumper seems to match the wings but yep hard to tell from the photos. What I'd be most concerned about in that car is what shape the underneath is seen as its a UK import. In the main rust underneath put my 04 Corolla of the road last year and that was imported in from UK in 2008. Looked at a replacement Corolla, Avensis and a couple of Auris last year that were UK imports also and they were in terrible shape underneath - one of the Auris was particularly bad. People seem to think that Toyotas don't rust but they very much will too. Generally they are a great car though if maintained to some extent. Probably one of the last model Toyotas with that sort of solid Toyota feel to it. If all checks out that's on for not bad money.

It could suggest that the car got a right smack in the front corner which could impact suspension, chassis and how the car drives, etc. I'm not saying don't go look at it but it's certainly an area of the car I'd be focusing on with a detailed inspection.
