So I finally broke down and got the chrom trim from Pep Boys. The faded strip on my from and rear bumper were driving me crazy.
Very easy replacement and really does make a big difference!!!!!

Hey all -

Just wanted to let you all know that I actually polished my chrome strip using some wax and a towel. Mine were REALLY dull before but now it looks brand new.

Check out the photo!



Save yourself 60 bucks and just wax it hard and it will get shiney again.

I promise!

Does anyone have before or after pics of this? Do you have to remove the bumper to install. Thanks

I polished mine back up. I guess as long as it's not missing it should clean up. After winter they are always dull on the rear and fron.
