I'm thinking like the front wheel arch bits and the door handles

Faded badly and back to black didn't work

Has anyone painted them before and if so, can you tell me using what?

Thank you

I tried a heat gun on mine and some other liquid black restore crap and it didn't work.
Try using 50/50 mixture of baby oil & mineral oil. Apply, let sit 1 hour in sunlight, rub area thoroughly & wipe off with a towel. It lasts for about 4-5 months.

if you take your time you would be able to mask up well, i took mine off and did them and then got some 3m tape of ebay and put em back on then sealed the top edge with black silicone , the good stuff,
