Nah, it's because his is a 94 - paint fades. I wanted to see how bad it looked so I peeked underneath my emblems on my 93 light green, and it was so nice and shiny under there, hehe, compared to the rest of the lightly faded car. So the emblem went back on.

Just normal weathering of the paint can leave 'clean' spots under the emblems. I just left mine on.

That's probably just paint fade. If you have any idea on how to use one take a buffer and blend the area.

well the car is gonna be repainted soon cause it has some problems on the roof.



bought it like this, got a good deal on it and thats the only ****ed up thing, motor has been taken very good care of and interior is almost flawless considering its 10 years old. Once its repainted it should be pretty dope.

Yeah, that's your clearcoat saying goodbye. Mines still in tact because the car was waxed about once every 3 weeks all it's life and regularly washed (weekly). But I do have fade and some acid rain marks that I want gone.

I'm going white.

Good luck with your repaint.
