black fenders and bumpers
What is the best way to keep them looking black, they seem to grey out over time.
Or is everyone just using some form of a armour all protectant?

One trick to bring back the black I used on my old Grand Cherokee was to use a heat gun. It melts the plastic a bit pulling the die back to the surface. This will bring it back, but it will fade again. I never found a way to keep them black.

The Mother's Back to Black works alright - there was a thread on here that mentioned another kind of cleaner that was supposed to do a real good job, but can't think of it...

Bumper Coating. That's what it's called and it does it well. I bought a spray can at auto zone. Took the bumpers off, gave 3 coats each and 5 months later it's still holding up great. It's so much cheaper and easier than armour al every jeep wash.
