Try to hit it with steam machine cleaner or leave it out the sun. I would highly suggest going the steam cleaning style as you can control the amount of heat and the area being applied.

It was all painted at the same time (although separately, they didn't spray the bumper with the lip mounted!).
I got a quote of $300 to paint the sarona roof spoiler and type-s spoiler. He quoted 600-800 for just the bumper but I told him there's a front lip on it and we agreed on $1000 for both rear spoilers and bumper plus lip.
After we agreed on 1k that's when I asked him for the extra stuff painted...
Told him I'd disassemble every part to save labour.
Hood trim and V trim paint matched WDP
Center bar and center portion of bumper painted gloss black to get rid of "bumper grey".
I had the same scheme for a long time with the SSM (although wrapped and not painted) and LOVE IT. Acura should have did it this way from factory for light coloured cars. For the SSM I never needed to do anything with the V trim or hood trim lol
Great idea man I'll have to try it thanks!
