Just curious, *** its really starting to bother me....my car is white and the side molding is grey and fading and a little discolored. What do u guys suggest i do. Should i paint over it and try to match up the color as best i can?? If so, how should i go about it....spray paint......paint in a can with a brush, and how should i prep it for painting?? Thanks very much.

I've been wondering about what I will do to the moldings when I finally paint my car. It's seems that they would be hard to paint back to the original color. Most people probably will say to paint them the same color as the car, but the more '93's I see, the more I like the '91-'92 moldings. There's somthing about it, but I can't put my finger on it.

Thats actually one of the reasons I like my 93. IT really bothers me to see the black trim. I would try to take it to a body shop, they should be able to match it.

You just gotta armour all it whenever you wash it. Or just paint it all one color.

If you EVER want to paint it, NEVER use armor all on it. That stuff and tire wet makes it really hard to paint the car good.
