Re: Faded paint!!
if the trim has gone too far then a heat gun/blow lamp ain't going to save them, it only realy works if your bumpers etc are just a bit faded, my advise would be to take the arch trims off and plastic paint them (make sure you degrease them and use adhesion promoter), i would mask off the bumpers and re-do them aswell if they are faded, back to black sucks boot polish is better and doesn't go white and streaky in the rain
