i would like to know too mine look like ****

 

I had the same problem with the molding between the trunk and the rear windshield. I took it over to my regular shop to ask how much it would cost to replace. He told me not to bother and said he had a better idea:

He took some black bumper paint (they sell it in autoparts stores) and sprayed light coats onto the molding. It suprisingly came out great and best of all, it was free!

 

well, i dont think my shop would do it for free but any other ideas cuz its fading all over my car and pissing me off lol TIA
