    I haven't tried the dye, but I'm sure it would work really well. I just used black polish and I was amazed at how well it filled in color, gave a great shine and was easy to use. Not to mention if it gets onto the paint or chrome, it just wipes off with a dry rag. Give it a shot, it only took me an hour or so to do all the trim on the car!

      Use kiwi leather dye. It works wonders and will last for years if prepped properly.

          shoe polish sounds like it wud be interesting to try.

          I usually use the Klasse leather/rubber/plastic/vinyl protector stuff... skinny red bottle, black cap.

            My mechanic has this special JDM stuff he gets at our honda dealership.

            Works damn well, and I've seen quite a few cleaning products in my day. I'll try and get the name (or a pic, since I've seen the tube and it's totally written in japanese)

                  Buy some black trim paint, mask those suckers off, sand them, and lay down a few coats = good as new

                  mine were practically gray a couple years ago

It lasted me over a year before I felt I needed to re-apply, it works better than anything else I've tried.

                      one process I used was the Krylon black fusion. I did this on my Golf 2's bumpers. Take the plastic off clean them well with soap and a nylon brush. Let them dry, mask off the painted areas. Spray the krylon Fusion onto the black pieces, let it dry. Worked for me and lasted awhile. A couple of good solid even coats will do wonders.
