Paint fading on trunk

[TexasGrrl]

The paint if fading at the edge of my trunk lid - anyone else? I haven't taken it to the dealership yet.

I havent had that problem - yet - but I saw a 2015 just the other day that had faded considerably, but the car looked like it had not been taken care of at all

Had the same fading, tried to polish and buff it, it looked better, but still not great. I'm thinking of respraying the section with a matched base coat and clear coat from spray cans.

Haven't seen that but my pearl white 2015 clearcoat on front and rear bumper is peeling badly and changing colors and Hyundai says "sorry, not our problem" when I tried to get them to fix it.

my pearl white

That was the color of the car that I saw that looked so bad

If I attempted that, it would look so ghetto! I'd have to spray paint the whole car flat black LOL!

without a professional repaint it is really difficult. That does not mean you have to put up with it.
How about a series of bumper stickers across it? With elections coming up, you should be able to get a variety of them
Outline it is a contrasting color. All you need is a pint of Sherwin Williams enamel and a 2" brush.
Anti-Alien radio signal shield. Just a 6" wide strip of aluminum foil. You can even make a matching hat.

I hope these ideas inspire you to do something truly inventive and enhance the beauty of your car.

Hey! I live in Texas and I've seen people already on board with this design

You can get a pretty good result with the right paint/clear - many videos on the process - paint about $85. I painted the front bumper on a Honda and it looked pretty darn good

Mine too 2015 G80 Black Paint is perfect everywhere else except in the base of the Trunk Lid
