Dont know about everyone else but mu honeycomb grills are a pain in the arse to keep looking black. I use Megs Trim Detailer on them but after one or two days of rain they just go back to the grey faded look! So now i dont even bother. Anyone got any better products to use that last, Failing that i could go a get them painted black??? :?

Mines just look dead faded, never thought about it getting chipped, probably not a good idea painting them :?

Not got a pressure washer, just the garden hose :(

Try Chemicals Guys trim gel. Get a big damp paint brush to apply.
