Black Trim Turning Brown?

I noticed for the first time on my ‘19 Limited that the trim piece under the passenger headlight has discolored to a dark brown. Anyone else notice? I look at it mid morning with the sun behind me and I was standing maybe 6-8 feet across from the passenger door. Just so you know what angle I first saw this from. My wife says I’m seeing things, my OCD suggests otherwise. Here’s a pic:

Body panels color looks a little different on a plastic vs metal piece. It depends on the angle also. Seems fine to me.
Can you post some more pics?

I’ll try again tomrw when the sun is in a similar position.

Looked at it again and it’s black again from a different angle. Maybe the paint protection film on it reflects light a bit differently at different angles. Just more for my OCD to contend with!

I actually notice the same thing with mine, I have no pain protection film. Kind of the reason why I decided to buy black instead of the metallic gray ram. That color seems to go from grey to brown depending on the light.
