    Hi All,

    I want to remove the black plastic roof rails that run along the roof of the car. They are fading grey and have a number of marks all of them. I have tried claying them until smooth, cleaning properly & preping them and then using forever black. But did absoultly nothing!

    I know i can buy replacements from Holden (about $30-$40 each) but i don't want to pay them stupid amounts of money to replace them if i can do it myself :idea3:

    I've always wondered about this myself. Hopefully someone can enlighten us...
