Conditioner, with color in it.

It's for all those cars from the 80's, with black bumpers, before they started body coloring everything, they would tend to turn grey when they oxidize.

With the right paint job it looks good without the stupid spoiler. I voted mine not to be returned.

Yes, go to NAPA or an auto paint supply company and get a few spray cans of SEM "Honda Black" Bumper paint. Amazing stuff. I have used multiple coats even on the porous rear S spoilers and made them look like a new molded smooth part. Has held up for many years. No need to continously reapply like "conditioners".

Shipping can be pretty cheap as well as they curl up into a small box and go UPS.

I'm in.

I can tell you there is no product by Mothers called "Black Chrome" available currently, perhaps in the past. Mothers does have "Back to Black" for faded stuff or waxed over matte black surfaces which does work very well.

Something i would suggest would be SEM spray can "Bumper Coating" It leaves the textured finish but it much more subtle then would be a bed liner or something. I maybe experimenting with this stuff on another car I have. From what ive heard its pretty good. Last i checked, a local autoparts store had "Bumper Coating" from Dupli-Color in Black and a Charcoal color. I would go that route to refresh that lower spoiler.

Anyway let me know what you guys think.

Since this was an open call for a Group buy I guess I will throw my hat in the ring.

As mentioned our normal price has been $400, but I just heard back from my supplier and as long as I can get at least 5 people in on a group buy we can do them for $350 each... AND IF we can get 10 people we can get them down to $340.... AND if we can 20 people confirmed we get them down to $330.

For those coming to Sharks in the Mountains you can pick them up and save shipping.

In order to get them here for pickup at SITM, we need to have all takers confirmed by the end of this week.

Hope that is the kind of group buy you guys were looking for!
