Fading

[ExVillin400]

I'm getting a 400ex, and I just wanted to know if the red 400ex's plastics fade after a while because i've noticed some people with faded plastics. I plan to take care and wax the plastics, but even with this, will they still fade? Thanx a lot.

The plastics don't really fade enough to notice unless you are comparing them to a brand new 400ex. The thing that fades on the 400ex is the red seat. It kind of turns orange over time.

Just don't store it outside. That makes the plastic fade.

the guy i bought my 300 from had left it outside when he was building his house and the seat cover was orange and the plastics were a little faded, i bought a seat cover and graphics kit, put on some plastic renew, and it looks as good as my friends '01 300
