M series steering joint often overlooked

I believe Kubota has changed the paint multiple times or must have different manufacturers. I have seen two tractors from the same year and model with one fading and one not even close. Beats me. I do feel their paint is a high end acrylic enamel--because I use a lot of it-- and think the fading is not all that related to the quality of the paint itself. Does that make sense?

Either way, the better figure it out.
