Talking about the fake vents and scoops on the front sides and back near the windshield. If so, do you use the same stuff you use on other exterior black trims? Like 303 our other? Or do you use something different or "special" for these?

Use some Adams VRT!

Thanks for the tip. It just occurred to me that I have a bottle of Jay Leno's Tire and Trim, which is supposed to be good for plastics. I may try that before I buy something different. Works pretty well on the tires, giving it a fairly matte finish with a little bit of shine. Will let you know how it works on the hood pieces.

Nice let me know! I always see that in autozone but never tried it. I’m really big on griots and Adams brand, but always open to new stuff
 
I used this on a cladded Avalanche I had years ago with EXCELLENT long lasting results. This was the GM TSB fix for the faded plastic that plagued that model. It goes on super easy, looks awesome, and has incredible longevity. This Spring, when I detail my Longhorn, I will use it on the Rambox tops, and any other black plastic trim.20200305_172954.jpg20200305_172959.jpg
 
I’ve always used Mothers back to black with good results , however I haven’t tried it on this Rebel yet , it’s been too cold ever since I bought it back in November

I use Thetford ProtectAll
 
I use Thetford Protect All on all black plastic on my 2020 Laramie Sport.
 
I Use Chemical Guys VRP, its water based so when it rains you don't get streaks running down your truck. also once it dries its not tacky so it doesn't attract dust like mothers black to black will
