Roof trunk and hood paint fading?
The southflorida sun is really messing up my paint, ive waxed the car about 5 times since i bought it, may 31st 2003, but its starting to look pink, u could see the trunk with lighter spots the roof and the hood 
... Will mitsu waranty taake care of this or will i have to repaint my car? Anyone else with the same problem?

03 and already fading paint! I'm pretty sure the 5 year bumper to bumper (not sure if it's 3 or 5 or 10) warranty takes care of that. I would take it to a dealer asap and have them work on it! Some people around here got their brembo repainted under warranty because the paint was peeling. I'm sure they'll take care of your car's paint. damn... that's crazy.. already fading!

My carbon fiber wing turned yellow, the dealer changed it. same thing happened to a ffiend of mine, go to the dealer it should be covered.
