just primered my car.........

hey guys i just primered my car earlier today and there are a couple dark spot with fuzzy's on it on the front bumper and hood....the rest looks good...now my question is how do u get the primer to be all one color? Can you sand down the darker areas to get it to match the rest of the car??

Why would you need primer to match? You'll be painting over it anyway... as long as its smooth and free of oil/dust, you should be good to go.

yes thats true i kno that, but the reason i want it to match is because im not going to get it painted for about a month and a half or so and i dont even know what color im going to paint it anyways, so i really dont want to drive my car looking like that.....it doesnt look horrible dont get me wrong....but like half of the hood and the top of the front bumper is alot darker than the rest of the car and it just want it all to match....thanks

Your car has primer on it, I don't really think it matters what shade it is....
