Mine is chocolate brown too, but when I decide to paint mine I think I'll match the sides color and eliminate that dark brown and the heat when the sun is pounding on it. it would definitely improve the looks and make your trailer look a little newer by color scheme that the year they are.

I had the same thought. It's super tempting to redo mine in a nice light beige. I know it will show dirt more, but I can literally feel the warmth on that bedroom wall if there's been any sun that day.

It's probably colored gel coat not painted. The color is infused into the fiberglass. Pretty hard to match with paint.

Unless you had a warranty paint job on your front cap, it is like a fiberglass boat and simply gelcoat. If itwas not painted ,then it will look like crap and faded real bad. If it is still nice looking, I would go to a auto parts store and get a colour match touch up paint like you get for your car.
