Has anyone else had trouble with their 03.5 lips fading? I don't know if it is just the color yellow that fades or what the deal is. It is not a SUPER significant difference that the rest of the car, but it is noticeable. The mirrors are also doing the same thing. So the front lip, rear lip, and mirrors are fading. Anyone else seen this in theirs or does anyone know a cure?



 
It happens. The plastic stuff will fade faster than the metal stuff. And yellow and spicy are the worst ones about it.
 
Well, do you think I should get a repaint on the lips and mirrors, or is there something that I can use to make it look about the same? Thought about just vinyl wrapping all the pieces but I feel like that would be too much especially if I had to do the rear lip. That would mean I may have to do the sideskirts to make it all go together. Thoughts or suggestions?
 
Tyler, same thing is happening to my mirrors.
 
Really? Well I hate that you can tell the difference in the colors. I don't know whether to do anything about it or not
 
I buffed mine about a year and a half ago and it brought them back to life, but it's started fading again.
 
Doesn't help when they come prefaded off the lot. Mine have always been a shade lighter. Blazing yellow also btw
