You can see the plastic is turning a dull grey, let me know of any tried and true methods of fixing this.

I noticed the same thing happening to mine, especially the cowl plastic. I'm going to try a plastic polish used for headlight covers and see what it does.

Painted my window cowl thread there is a link to another thread at the top that talks about restoring the plastic using some various products as well.

Mothers polish
Back to black
Use it on all trim looks brand new.

Back to black wears off too quick. Ive heard Magic erasers work well on the window seals. It might be worth trying on plastic.

I have had very good luck with these since getting pissed at the Back to Black poor application and longevity.

The plastic on mine is doing the same thing. I haven't tried Mother's BTB yet but I have a bottle sitting around somewhere. I'll see if it does the trick once the rain stops.

Thanks Dante.....

Some 'brand names' have a great reputation, and all their products are 'golden'!!
Some other 'brand names' have a terrible reputation across the board.

MEGUIAR'S is one of those brand names that has a GREAT reputation....

I have never, not even once, heard of them bringing out a 'bum' product. Their product line is 'golden'.
