    I've had really good luck with Mother's Protectant and Armor All plastic spray for all my faded black plastic. Should work for your colors too.

    It fades really slowly on mine and my truck is in the sun all the time. The color stays usually until the next time I wash it, which lately has been a few months in between.

    You can join my idiot club and go every Saturday to the wash. Best $30 bucks a month I spend. They do a great job and are really nice.
