looking at various pics of other lt1 camaros, most guy's headlight trim is dark with no blemishes at all. Mine is all faded and more grey than black. I used to use a product called Stoner's Trim Shine, and that would make it good for a few days, but not permanent. Now, living in VA, I can't find it. Any suggestions to restore it's brilliance?

I tried something that worked on my 93 camaro today--just simple Armorall did the trick, and the black is back to its origional brilliance.

I also used it on the wiperblades and that worked really well. I dunno how it will hold in the rain, but then again I don't drive when it is wet out...

Anywho, Armorall worked for me =)

goodluck

I do not know if Back to Black would work or not. The next time I had the time I would stop by the store and read the label to see if it might work for you.

It does work. Thta's what I use. I have to buff it a couple of times to get of any residual residue left,but it leaves a shine that repels water nicely?

Does "Back to Black" also work for the black strip between the T-tops?

Red97LT1

I use it for everything that is black. The headlight trim,the strip between the t-tops,the molding that runs below the window,etc. My strip between the t-top had alot of rain spots,but after awhile I finally got it clean?

just tried to paint my uro parts headlight trim and i think it looks good! Looks similiar to the Audi TT lamps. I added 'citylights' to the high beam area, looks great...

Just wax it with some Meguiars gold class wax and see what happens. That's all I use on the '95 and it looks pretty decent. Back in 2002 I had a professional polish the car and use an acrylic sealant on all the paint, and that oddly enough turned what used to be matte black into semi-gloss black.

They polish up nicely with normal rubbing compound and glaze. Go easy, though, as the finish is not clearcoated and there isn't alot of color to work with. I had the whole thing cleared when the nose was repainted, and while not 100% stock-looking, it was hassle free and looked great.
