I'm going to need a new front bumper top from 914Rubber, but I'm hoping to save the rear one. It's in really nice shape but it looks dirty, dull/faded (see pic below). What's the best way to bring it back to looking its best?

Rub glycerin into it. It requires reapplication from time to time, but its not petroleum based so it will not deteriorate the rubber.
