SE SR 1st gen owner, parked outside and washed regularly. I noticed the rear spoiler and the spoiler mount (rear plastic tailgate) is very mat looking with no metallic shine to it. I slid my finger to realize its more sticky than other painted plastic parts. The rest of the painted parts are looking prefectly well as it should be.
It almost looks like the clear coat was burnt off but it is only the top side of plastic piece mat color, like the top coat was burned off from the sun. Back side and under the spoiler looks metallic black but the top looks horrible.
Anyone had similar paint defect? I'm sure car wasn't like this when I bought it a year ago, and its near impossible to burn the top coat in this short amount of time.
