Go for it, smooth the bumpers, use filler primer then send the archs etc.. into the bodyshop n get them a nice gloss black, would make the acr look mint and shiney!

i've tried everything on mine apart from a heat gun. they are still half grey half black.
What actually works?
back to black doesn't,
autoglym bumper care didn't
boot polish didn't

Could just keep on top of it and buy some decent bumper shine!

how mine used to look:



Nearly got GSi skirts painted black to fit in but decided to colour code instead!

Looks good red and black if its done properly i just decided mine wasnt right :lol:
