Does look 100% better -- for now. I used the paint designed for plastic and after about a month or so, there were only traces left. Then the next time around, I tried rubberized undercoating. Did the insides and out thinking it would make a noise difference. Total waste of time, but gave me something to do. I Should have painted them yeller or red so I could have picked up a horse or two. Maybe next time.

Nice but it'll get covered in road dirt in a few days. You'll never know it's there in a month.
I use armor all when I detail it, seems to last about 3 days.

Just use the other suggestions
And as for the dirt.....that's prolly 6 years of buildup. Do it once or even just once a year, and it'll be as good as new.

I know some ppl would try to bite my head off for posting that - but a new arch liner goes for under 35 bux, why not to invest in a good and useful shite like that?

Because they will eventually look the same, either sooner or later. This way, I was also able to remove the 2 intake resonators and know where to duct cool air into the intake . I'd like to know how shiney these (new ones) would be or stay . I'd say this enhancement is for detail conscious or bored owners; and I'm in both

I would say: new + rubberized undercoating spray.
