There is NO WAY to prevent it unless you DA the stock crappy gell coat off and spray a few coats of quality clear coat on the hood. 10 minutes after taking my brand new seibon hood out of the box.......it was in the paint booth getting re-cleared. Thats the only way to insure it will stay looking fresh.

I was talking about the damage from the rock salt due to scratches and putting marks in the c/f. not about the clear coat fading.
*edit*
in fact I didn't even say anything about sun fade.
