are those inserts SUPPOSED to be black?? they are gray..i just assumed they were supposed to be that color...

I have some "back to black" that I used on the base of the sidemirrors and the plastic trim between the hood/windshield - that stuff was faded and i used back to black and it came back to looking nice and black.
i can paint it or i can use the back to black stuff. i've used that on other cars and it seems to do a good job getting the black color back to plastic/trim/etc.
