Stock Air Tubes Faded Coloring

[elanderholm]

I'll try to get a picture, but one of the air tubes from the intake (if you are standing in front of the car looking at the engine it's the right side) is faded a lot more than the other one. It's practically grey while the other one is pretty black. The car is always garaged and has about 20k miles, 2008 ACR. Anything to worry about? I searched, but didn't find anything. thx.

try the product called back to black. works great on faded rubber or plastic. not sure if that helps

Thanks. I'm not that concerned about how it looks. I'm curious if it's indicative of something more serious. Seems odd that one would be much more faded than the other.

I personally do not think its an indication of anything. could be just a small defect in the intake tube material.
