Has the "patina" trend caught on here yet?

Patina on some, maybe a true survivor, yeah leave it. But shows like *** monkey garage have used it to try to turn a car for max profit without doing much to it.

My own car, not original paint, is wearing on the edges and top of doors from hanging my arm out. Looks well used but patina is a word I use to justify not painting it because of lack of funds...
