the black plastic over the wheel wells seems to get faded easily, somewhat white. this happens as soon as i get on the road after washing. i've tried armour all to no avail. what do you use to keep it clean?

"Mothers Back to Black", Autozone PepBoys etc.. check with them, some paint them, it looks real good, but I hear its a pain.

Black shoe polish (the cheaters liquid), and then 303 over that. Gleaming black for months!

Autoglym's Instant Tyre Dressing is excellent

Just used the "Back to Black" stuff, looks great, for added effect, apply to AC/DC, Back in Black. turned up to 11.
