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?

Those are two interesting, and quite unique, approaches. I’ve previously used back to black and it has worked well initially but not held up very well. But that was on a harder material. Would the Vaseline method last longer?

Would the Vaseline method last longer? Depends if it's a garage queen or daily driver. Just re-apply as needed. If the vaseline doesn't work, you can always sand but might as well try easy, first. |
