Default Help on Cleaning fender wells

Does anyone have good ideas on cleaning discolored/faded plastic in fender wells to give them a darker new color?

Scrub them good and then a product called back to black should give the black you are seeking...

rockauto.com sells new ones very inexpensively. I recently bought two new front pieces for ~$45 shipped. They're very slightly different than OEM, but of similar quality. I just needed the front half on either side, and the rears are slightly more expensive.

Awesome, Thanks for the help. I have tried scrubbing them, but theyre just discolored and more grey now. I was planning on getting some new front fenders soon just worn from normal driving, but the back fenders are just grey looking. Might try plastidip on the backs first see how that turns out.

Scrub with Simple Green/water solution.....or any degreaser w/water.
Once completely dried.....
Buy a can of Krylon Fusion Black spray paint for plastic....no sanding or priming needed.
Cover wheel using either old towels, blanket, tarps & etc. place cardboard or plastic
under tire area...turn wheel & spray paint...do front and back sections of the liner. or take off liners & spray paint!
