Firstly, does anyone know if the upol plast-x bumper/trim paints are any good?

Secondly, Does anyone know which colour I'm looking for??
I have been told probably bassalt grey or mid grey (I've got a 1998 v40)

Thanks.

If they have faded then the best way to bring them back is using a heat gun on low setting. It basically heats the plastic and draws out the oils. Seems mad but i do it on any faded trim. Sorry that i cant answer your paint Q!

Thanks anyway,

I am actually looking to paint the centre of my grille.
I know the norm is to paint it black, but I am having the wheels refurbed in matt anthracite and I think it would look better with the wheels and the rest of the trim if it were all in the same 'volvo' grey.
