   Cheap option - baby oil, better option - some sort of back to black plastic restorer product. I've also heard a heat gun works but don't quote me on it.

   Back to black but make sure you mask off the below/above paint work because it can make a mess of the paint if your not careful

   Back to black is poo. Come off mine within days. Go to the detailing section there's loads of threads about it in there
