Is it only Skoda that would sell the bumper trims for the vRS... Mines had it and has been bleached by the sun. Back to black spray was good for all of 5 minutes....

Also, any ideas on price

Take it off and wave a heatgun over it.

Those sprays are rubbish too, try a bumper gel.

Not cheap but supposed to be fantastic stuff, probably still cheaper than new trims though - http://gtechniq.com/shop/3s-for-cars/exterior-coatings/c4-permanent-trim-restorer/

I've just bought some auto-glym black die for my trims. Just give a spare trim a quick blast and looks good. Goin to do trims on the car at the weekend maybe. Will post a before and after pic when i do it.

You need a bumper trim restorer buddy like autoglym

gets mine up a treat, Don't go buying new buddy when you don't need to.

The g-technique stuff is pretty good. I can vouch for it.

Just don't get it on the paintwork becuase it doesnt come off!!

take them off rub them down smooth and spray them satin black then matt laquer them

Was thinking of doing this but wasnt sure if plastidip would go on them. Did you remove them or just paint them on the car.

Took them off, prise one end up and then pull to the other side, just go steady on the corners.

I cleaned mine with APC and then wiped dry with a MF cloth, Plastidip went on really well and looks great.
