Nice........Proof is in the pictures! Thanks for posting this, I was looking for a good trim protection product.

You should post this in the detailing forums as well.

It completely got rid of that chick!!!

I hope this doesn't happen to you, It's notorious for looking good for a short period then either leaving a white residue or fading back to gray.

The trick with black plastics is to get a good dose of UV blocker on them. Aerospace 303 is great, as well as Meg's Vinyl protector, I thik it's #40, maybe 42.

These are two better alternatives to B2B. Black Again, Bondo Restore Black, and Forever Black. I don't recommend Forever Black, it's like shoe polish/stain, ok for a beater. I once used Black Again on a 12 year old Honda and it made the trim look great. It even survived the car sitting in 2 foot deep water for 12 hours.

Again, not knocking your effort, it does look good...a lot of folks haven't had great luck with that product.

Is it just me or is that a massive hood scoop? What hood scoop is that if you don't mind me asking?

It's a Cervini b-9 hood scoop. Eventually, I'd like to dress her up like a boss 429. But that's gonna be a few paychecks down the road
