ok did the 93 come with the dark gray bumper gaurds around the car , cause I painted mine jet glossy black and it made it look banging

They came black, but they fade over time. A lot of people repaint them or use Kiwi shoe polish to make them black again.

Wow - shoe polish, clever. I just replaced my front one because it was pretty cracked up. I will try that on the back one.

Kiwi used to be an Australian brand shoe polish until it was bought out and taken over by an American company.

So, if the new owners haven't fiddled with the formula, then it should still be quite good however, if they have 'Americanised' the formula then .............

.....then the company tried to cut the cost down, moved factory to overseas for cheap labour, decided to add cheaper & mysterious chemicals that are known to cause cancer in state of California, may complicate pregnancy, one must be over 21 years of age to buy, million-dollar lawsuit everywhere...

Just kidding.

Actually I believe there were some who thought its properties as a "pick me up" (or more likely a knock me down) when mixed in with a liberal dose of methylated spirits far exceeded whatever abilities it possessed as a shoe polish.
