E90 pre-lci diffuser faded

Hi all,

I have a pre-lci m sport and the diffuser has faded. I want to restore to an original factory look. Has anyone had this problem before and/or have any advise on how to restore. I would prefer to use a trim dressing if anyone can recommend one, otherwise I may have to have it sprayed...

Thanks for your help in advance.

You can try using some "Meguiars Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer". I've never used it on my personal car, but have used it on my buddies car and it worked very well. It has lasted now for over 2 months with several washes and some rain/snow. You can get it at your local auto shop for around $8.

looks stained from car wash detergents and polish trim polish might help but I'm skeptical. Mother's and Chemical Guys have decent products.

Thanks for your comments guys. I have tried auto revive finesse which was recommended by someone. Results have been OK but nothing great, and I would still like it darker like factory. I might try gtechniq c4 next. Has anyone for experience of any dressings on such a problem...
