Preventing sun damage on aftermarket parts

[Kevin and Sara]

Our truck is too tall to fit in the garage and it's becoming a problem. Many of the aftermarket parts are becoming flat black because of the sun. Can this be prevented or reversed?

Get a custom car (truck) cover. Won't be cheap, but will be worth it.

+ Alternatively get yourself a cheap blue tarp and use bungee cords to hold down around truck when not in use.

Not much you can do about it. Get a good cover and keep your rig clean and apply UV conditioners that bring back color and condition

I use 303 spray
I spray all my plastic and rubber. Over the years, I can see a difference comparing to friends vehicles when it comes to discoloration.
They make a few diffrent types of spray. I haven't tried their marine UV spray yet.

303 spray works very good. But first time using, spray a thick coat on and leave it before wiping.
