I'll throw in another plug for Forever Black. It's been a couple years since I used that stuff for my severly faded bumpers, and it hasn't faded a bit since. Looks brand new. I will say it took more than 2 coats upfront, but the stuff is amazing - no comparison to that Black Chrome stuff you get at the auto parts store that washes off in the rain.

Forever Black is the product that you need, its sold at IPD and other online retailers (do a google search). Gives pretty good results, its a permanent dye. You need the bumpers to be real clean before application, and two coats gives the most even coverage. And don't forget to mask because it can be tough to remove once its dry (about 10 min.).
Good Luck,
BULL
