Default I hate my Stang's side scoops and side skirts

as the title says...for those of you who have white stangs (99-04) have you ever noticed that the sidescoops and side skirts are more of an off white than and white white like the rest of the car? its really getting to me..im thinking of repainting them...or even getting bullit sides and cobra sideskirts ( ) haha...

well the reason is for that I beleive is that the body is Metal where the bumpers and such are fiberglass... this is what I have been told at least... so on many color cars they seem to be off... even my car if you sit there and really examine it looks off...

give yer car a good detail/ wax and it'll look better

no..the front and rear bumpers are exactly the same as the hood, quarter panels, roof, and doors.....its just the side scoops and the scoops and skirts....
