what are you talking about mabie i typed wrong or you read it wrong.... But i BOUGHT the car LIKE THIS. It was sunbaked and the wax was sunbaked in and ate the paint up. So my paint is majorly faded and just wanted to get some pics of what a stock red 240sx would look like. If its to light i might go with a darker red when i get my rear fender replaced.

Mine is a sunbaked red as well, but it's getting repainted in a month or two. I just can't stand the popo following me everywhere!

actually, you got it backwards.

the paints faded from NOT being waxedwax doesnt attack paint, if it did we would all have some serious problems considering how hard it is to keep your car out of direct sunlight.

next time dont buy a car with faded paint.

Thanks for the complement man . . . Meguiar's Cleaner, 3M Imperial Hand Glaze, 3M Finishing Polish, and a coat of Meguiar's Hi-Tech Wax seems to work pretty well. :-)
