Fading plastic

r is starting to do that what u can do if u do, is try taking it to the dealer and see what they can do if not paint it

Mine is not fading at all.

Then again, mine's in the garage a lot.

Does anybody have issues with this piece of plastic fading due to UV light? If I parked in a garage this wouldn't of occured over time. What type of spray
paint is recommended?

If you're gonna paint it, make sure its black spray paint :facepalm:

Maybe I should of made myself clear and said what type of BLACK spray paint. :rolleyes5: Jesus...

That looks really strange...my car stays in the garage but mine isn't entirely covered...sometimes rain/sun reach my car but I haven't noticed that plastic at all. I'll check tomorrow and see if I notice that at all. And yes, black would be best haha

yea...mine sits outside all the time...i haven't noticed but i haven't looked either...i will tomorrow! lol
and as for paint...ya got me =P

you could try that "back to black" stuff

I'm gonna purchase the Dupicolor trim paint

I use this windshield shade and love it! Prevents stuff like this ^^^ happening.

LMAO, i think he puts it on the outside, its an exterior shade :facepalm:

An exterior shade? How do you possibly get that to stay on when you walk away from your car?

Speaking of shades ... as a thank you for painting his calipers, my brother bought me a Hello Kitty sunshade for my windshield AGH!!!! It's so cute. He went to Wonderland today and picked it up on his way home at a store in Vaughn ... Surprisingly, I didn't have one of them (I mean I had a shade, but not an HK one )

too much :sifone: makes your mind a little less alert LoL!!

I live in texas where its 300 Mother floppin degrees and my plastic hasnt faded, no garage either.

You should paint it to match your car tho....

I get to park my car in the garage, but usually it's after she's been sitting outside all day at work. So technically she is outside a lot when it's sunny and mine has shown no signs of fading.

Maybe ask your dealership the next time you are there about it. The car is not that old, it should not have faded that quickly.

why not use Armorall? mine was doing that but it was from rain that dryed on that part. i used armorall and it fixed it you might have to use a lot do....

I'll paint it once I'm not lazy on my spare time. How does yours not fade when it's hot majority of the year? Doesn't make sense to me at all.

that is strange, i live in Florida and had mine over 3 years and no such fading of that extent! weird.
