Back home in Norway now and I've been busy on the smurf already. I ordered these a few months back and I'm quite chuffed with them. I just need to re-spray the grille and black the bumpers.

Nice. Have you tried the Heat Treatment method on the plastic bumper. Supposed to work well.

Yes I tried that on my syncro back in the UK. It works once for a few months and fades back. Apparently it's not good for the bumpers in the long run. Boiled linseed oil works the best I've found.
 
I got hold of some Boiled LInseed Oil yesterday and started on the bumpers and the other black bits. Its worked a treat on most bits but there are still some bits that are just too far gone. Overall though its well worth it.
