I noticed there is a thread around here to gloss the bump strips, but im not sure i wanna do that, atm mine are fading slightly grey especially around the grill with the badge, i've given it a quick once over with the old back to black bumper shine stuff but that aint amazin:n:!

Has anyone got any recommedation? Just want it black again, and not grey!!

Cheers in advance :D

Awaits P90PTS to arrive with his Gtechniq recommendations :)

That stuff is the absolute best thing money can buy for trims :)

cheers m8 :y:, will that actually restore it back to black as on the vid clip it still looked grey? or was that just the sunlight making it look lighter?

Will find you a before and after pic, It's very tiny bottle for the price, but it's permanent, not just a back to black, it actually treats the plastic :)

EDIT : Stolen from P90 PTS..

yes you only need a very small amount on an applicator, I have done 3 cars so far from 1 15ml bottle, Very very sparingly :)
