You can fix the bumper step with a product called FADE BACK TO BLACK sold at any autoparts store

I have used the Krylon spray paint designed for plastic...did it on my old RX300 grill and it held up very well....

Plasti-drip is much easier to peel off if you do not like it.

Good masking skills
I would've taken the original ones off, purchase new ones, paint then apply.

there is also a product that is called RENEW...same concept.

The emblems look good...I think what would have set it off is the dupli-color black chrome paint...That is an amazing system and looks great.

Another alternative to RENEW is Carpro PERL in undiluted form, awesome stuff.
