It’s a 20 year old 4M9 Toyota. Yes, it’s faded. You still don’t believe me? Let’s find something that hasn’t seen the sun since 1997...

It almost looks stained back there. The even fading everywhere else is improbable...

It did, mounted on a plastic bracket, but the front end had been somewhat recently repainted.

The car kind of looks like the worlds worst attempt at a custom two tone fade.

Nope. 4M9 and 4Q2 were some of the worst colors ever invented for pigment loss. If I popped an emblem off of the trunk and cleaned the adhesive residue up, there would be a gold shadow of the nameplate in whats now silver paint.

Ahh, I see. This was gold.

Still doesn’t look that bad, but that would SUCK if you had to do any body work.
