When my Sy was hit a month ago, they painted all the cladding for me to ensure it would match. I had 2 pieces that were starting to fade before all the rest anyways. What can I say now except that it looks fantastic!! I had them paint it matte black as close as possible to the original 1991 factory cladding paint. It looks now, just how it used to look after I applied Black Chrome, except no smears, no streaks, and best of all, it looks this way without doing anything except washing it!! Let me know if you want to see some pictures.
