Your argyles caught genital herpes so they are starting to blotch.

What kind of finish is on it (I assume you mean lowers - powder coat or paint)

I know it is possible for paint to oxidize (from being in the sun too long) over time and it is also possible for it to turn pink. If it's just paint get some cut polish or regular polish may work. That'll take the top little bit of oxidation off and restore it to it's true colour.
