I know someone who has, Rob at Gtechniq lol, go and buy some you *****, or use your black hair dye to stain the grey trim

No pictures, but I did mine a few months ago and they came up looking new (previously were old and white looking). They're starting to go again now but since putting G4 on I've not used anything else on them (AG Bumper care, for example) so it was kind of expected.

It's better than just AG bumper care because it doesn't streak when it gets wet, I found that after a few days of rain I'd get streaks of white trim coming through and it was rather unsightly.

You get a very black look from colour coding

G4 restores them to (what I assume is the original) grey colour. If you want black, try shoe polish

Rob, you must have some black gloss paint lying around, slap that on

Used it and really impressed so far. Returned the trim on my FD2 to as new. If you get some you must get the trim as clean as possible followed by an ipa wipedown for best effect and durability.

This may seem obvious, but Tardis strips it off. Make sure you de-tarred before applying!

Get some leftover boot polish on there; job done.
