3 options.
1. Buy new ones, either try Ford or get second hand ones in good condition. 2. I've heard certain polishes or some products can make them look like new again. Although I'd imagine you'd have to keep applying it every week for it to look new all the time. 3. Go out and buy some red paint in the same shade it is new, use a plastic primer and paint them red. Good luck with it

I use Meguiars trim detailer on mine, but like Braden said, I have to re-apply every 2 weeks or so.

This post has come up twice, in the other post I suggested some good cut and polish as that brought the colour back into mine and it's been 3 weeks and they haven't started fading again as yet!
