Color problem

This is for owners of satin silver vics. Do any of you guys have any problems with the color changing. My front doors look darker than the rest of my car in certain light. Just wondering

The colour definitely does fade. I recently got my rear bumper repainted and now I notice its slightly darker (although not that bad) than the rest of panels around it.

Dealer said if you pay ~$300 more for putting a Telfon coating on your car, the color should last longer. Is that true? I didn't put it on though.

eh.. just wax the car and keep it covered (IE park in structures.. if no garage buy a cover for like 40 bucks.. beats the hell out of teflon crap).. ya i notice under certain light the rear mismatches a little.

my rear bumper has this brownish color thats been there since day 1.

Heck, my sister's dark green accord turns to eternal blue under certain light angles.
