    the grill will probably not be back to best with bumper care to get the best results you will have to paint it

    on a serious note you can get some paint for hard plastics that will match the colour

    I'd try bumper care first, make sure you give it a few applications and if that doesnt work then try painting it.

    Trouble is, if you use the bumper care, you'll need to give it a serious cleaning before trying to paint it.
