Ok this may be a really stupid question (well it is)......after having 2001 Rav 4 for a week I was looking at the bumpers and side protection panels thinking "they look abit grey and could do with a good cleanup". I was going to use back to black on them.....we they originally black or can anyone recommend a better product to restore the natural colour?

Autoglym Bumper Care will do the job very nicely.

Leaves them a dark grey colour ( assuming they were grey to start with ! )

Mines are dark grey. And having tested auotglym on part, its very obvious that autoglym works!

Be sure to get the one in the turquiosy/green bottle as some of the others say they will do. Bumper Care is a superb product and will do the best job.
