Anyone seen their stock fender clips discolor to a silver-ish color? 2021 and I've noticed the black clips appear to have turned silver. When walking up to Jeep it looks odd that they have turned from black. Reminds me of the old Smittybilt Armor that was black and had silver pins all over them to attach. Not a fan. Wondering if anyone else has seen this. I like the all black and white look and not digging these clips turning silver... I realize they are dusty we
live down a gravel road but even when freshly washed they no longer look black. Thanks

Use some of that wet tire shine on them, that is UV damage.

UV Damage - I would have never thought of that. I'll try the tire shine idea. Thanks all for the feedback
