Pics would help. Sounds like your paint might be fading. All our paint fades, that's the Mitsubishi mark of love and admiration toward their customer base.

what exactly do you drive? if it's a lancer, then check here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=14304

but regardless, if you want to account for fading and other variations in the shading, you can go to a nice shop that has the machines and technology to match even faded paint. just a thought though

First of all what year car, if it is an 05 then I would have to say it is warm sand metallic, that's what I have and it looks silver at times too, depends on how the light hits it.

im sorry guys,
its on 02 lancer, with around 50k. I dont think its faded, its looked the same since ive brought it. It looks silver most of the time, but sometimes when light hits it on an angle, the color is somewhat different, like it has a hint of champagne in it.
