    Default Reversing the effects of fading paint?

    My contour sits in the sun all day every day and is now starting to show some pretty nasty looking fading primarily on the hood and the trunk lid. I've attached a couple photos below so that you can see my main problem areas. I was wondering if there is anyway to make these spots look a bit better? I'm aware that it's not likely that they'll ever look as they used to, but is there anything I can do to make it look less noticeable. Repainting the car isn't an option as I don't have the funds to do so.

    Thanks

    nufinish. and a cheap buffer from lows or wally mart $20. but make shure befor you wax you have a cool clean surfess. then after you have a nufinish try to find a way to keep it in a shade area. tree. cover. $100 tent. a black car needs shade the most that white crap will show more and if you ever have to repaint a black car its gonna be a high doller job for a black paint job will look like crap witout one
