How to fix the fading spoiler

I did a search and came up with nothing except, mitsu repainting the spoilers when they started to fade back in 04. My Car is out of warranty so this wont help me out. I was wondering if there was a how to or maybe a link, so I could fix my fading spoiler Thanks guys.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
A good body shop should be able to lightly sand and re-clear it.

You can find the how to thread. It's really informative and seems to work great. If you live in apts like me though its better if you have a friend or a friend of a friend that works in a body shop . I got quoted about 250 to have a body shop do it and told them to kiss my ***. They also wanted to charge me 50-75 bucks just to take the wing off the trunk though and that wasn't even part of the 250, so they may have been off their rockers.

Here's the thread . . .

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...bon-wings.html

I had my done at a body shop, but it took me a while to find one that would do it. Expect to pay about $150 (This is the "wing already off the car" price).

try stoping by some of the car dealerships in your area and ask when the mobile touch up/paint guy will be there. they will be alot faster than a body shop and a lot cheaper also. they usually will do it that day on the spot.
