my 4-runner is a '99 so its not too far gone. I dont need to paint it, I just want to polish it up when I wash it to give it that "wet", "black" look. Ive tried various tire dressings but they only seem to work for a day or so.

Someone here suggested Mequires Endurance to use on my tires, and man oh man, that stuff is awesome. Works for weeks. Now I just hope to find something like it for the plastic parts.

Thanks again for everyones help.
