    mine were so bad they were all grey,now they look brand new.everytime i clean the car i put Meguires tire shine on a rag and rub it into all the side moldings,and ever since they look brand new.the shine lasts long too.its the spray can.it lasts up to a month without reaplying.but do it evry time you clean your car.good luck.oh ya the shits $4 a can but it lasts forever.

        no prob man,make sure you get the Meguires with the adjustable spray nozzle,its for low pro tires and its adjustable up to truck tires.the shit works wonders.let me know how you like it.apply 2 coats the first time.good luck.its called "Meguires Hot Shine Tire Spray".

          Mine never faded, but I always put tire cleaner on them and they were soooo shiny!

          Then I shaved them, lol.

            u can always sand a bit and repaint it and put some coats of clear. my friend did that to his side skirts and they are badddd.

            i like it, when i have time ill do my front lip and my side skirts.

            im tired of re-applying some treatment where i can just paint it black.
            What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

            You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

              they sell stuff called "back to black" i think its called? idk but its supposed to like re-dye black mouldings to the original color... i dont think its paint, but its also not just something that makes it temporarily shiny. u might wanna check it out... i think i saw it at advance auto parts, so they should also have it at autozone and probably walmart. if u try it, let us know how it works.
