On the body of the 924 there are some lil side skirts below the door, on alot of the 924's ive seen they are really black, mine are an ugly greyish, how can i get them dark? is there a trick? same goes for the little peice of metal that runs down the side, its starting to gray a little, is there any tricks to keeping it back? shoe polish? anything?

I can't find it locally but I have heard that Mothers Back to Black is really good in this situation. I have tried a silicon based tire black but it left streaks of faint black on the paint every time it rained.

I just bought a product from a detailer here in Mineola, LI, NY. [Detail Dynamics, Matt ]
NO silicone in it and it makes the rubber bits normal without a shine and black. Worked well and yesterday it rained and there wasn't any streaking.
Mention my name.

the product...




Before.....




As you can see alota greyish and uglyness the back end is kinda gray ish its not as black as I would like it...





Mucho better if I do say so myself...

The side skirts are BLACK and perfect looking...
the back is alot darker and better


Downsides of this product: Tough to use on window area, can make some smears on your windows... and are kinda tough to get out, just use some windex though...

upsides: just look at the pictures....

I give it a 9/10 Great results, little mess I love it and will use it again!

Im going to make a seperate post so more people will look at the results..
