Much has changed since this topic was posted. For those who want to bring back the blackness of the plastic trims, the best product as of todate is https://www.cerakote.com/shop/cerako...-trim-coat-kit. It is a ceramic coating for plastic trims. As soon as you apply it, it gives a rich black wet-look finish (for a more matte look, it needs to be wiped down). It is said to last more than 200 washes. It's been 3 months since I've applied it on the plastic trims like front bumper grill, fog light bezels, windshield cowls, mud guards, and even the rear bumper and have washed the car at least 4x. I'm happy to say that it does hold up very well unlike the "back to black" from Meguiar's & Mother's that only last for a few days. Another positive about CERAKOTE is it's quite inexpensive at $20 with 10 applicator wipes which is more than enough to be used on our cars for 2-3 times. You can check out the reviews of pro detailers on YouTube & skip the ones done by amateurs as they tend to mess up the application process that can cause streaking from uneven application.
