      I have a bottle of that I got from work over a year ago. i sold the other bottle to Dragon, ,and it did look just as good as that and has lasted very well on his ride.

          That stuff looks great. I'm def going to get some. I've been using another well known product and it fades after about a month. I like the gray factory finish on my 90 lx, and don't really want to paint them.

              Just did this today on the 89. Wow, just wow. I'd post up before and after pics, but my camera went on strike after taking the before pics. I'll post 'em up when the camera is recharged.

              Granted, on that car, with the clear coat peeling and all the rest, it's kind of like your grandmother getting a boob job.

              But at least the bumpers look good. Curious now how long it will actually take to fade out.

                Okay, camera is back online, so here we go.

                Before Pics...









                And.... Drum roll, please.....
                After






                Not earthshattering, but I'm happy with the results. And my 89 is not sure what's going on. Never had two baths in one week before.:p

                    Yeah Bat!
                    I was just thinking about my bumpers, and I was wondering about painting them black, or using that product I saw on here...and I get on FF.com and here you are showing off your bumpers with that stuff on them. Like 2 seconds after I thought that, and I see your post!. Deja Voo.....
                    Looks good, think i'll try that first.

                        Thanks.

                        The pictures don't really do it justice, but they look 100 percent better. Actually probably going to go over them again. Wasn't really sure how far one 8 oz. bottle would go, so I went kind of thin. Either that, or I'll clean up the bumpers on the 90 and do it as well.
