Default Dress up an Air Dam (C5)

What do people use to dress up their air dams? I have seen a few posts on painting them and plasti-dipping them. Does anyone use tire dressing and if so is there any concern about sling going up into the engine bay?


Thanks,
John

Great thanks. I used Adams Super VRT on my tires for the first time a few weeks ago with excellent results. I think I am going to give it a try on the air dam.

A trim protectant indeed .... quick, easy and in most cases you can use the same applicator as on tires. I highly suggest Carpro's Perl.

Thanks for the suggestion on Carpro Perl. I will give it a try after i have worked through my Super VRT.
