    Hoping someone will have an idea how to clean the standard exhaust infill panel. The one on my RR8 looks faded and patchy. Cleaning with something like autoglym bumper care would look ok until exhaust heats and burns it off.
    What do you use?

    I think the plastic on the 08 model tended to fade and go blotchy..... mine was almost white....used to spray a silicon lubricant on it......kept it looking ok.

    It was a known problem, Thats why the 2010 onwards have a metal plate over the top to cover it up.

    Does the metal plate on a 10 plate fit the 2008?
