Both the bumpers and arches should be black, the arches you have seen in grey are probably just that faded that they have gone grey 
Buy some back to black, very good stuff for doing this, or get a heatgun, and go over the arches with it. Brings back the black good, just dont go to hard with the heatgun, or you will melt the arches.

It doesnt last long unfortunately, the plastic soon fades again.
Only way to stop it fading permanently is to either get the bumpers coloured coded, or paint them black, rather than just the
black plastic.

I'd say you'll need to do it every 2 weeks to be honest, maybe more often. If you don't have a heatgun opr don't know anyone who does it's worth doing as it only takes two minutes.
