looks really good. i did that to mine but it eventually came back.

 

Buff them with some plexi glass cleaner periodically and they'll stay looking nice longer.

 

Nice write-up!

 

wow came out great gj

 

Nice write up. It always comes back though...

 

thump up

 

I did the $20 kit from Oreilly's. It works great, but deffinately need to find a way to keep it coated. I am thinking of trying a thin layer of clear window vynal. Maybe after getting new headlamp assy's and installing profector lamps with HID's.

 

You can buy UV spray. When you sand the plastic, you are removing the haze, but you are also removing the factory UV protection. . . Which is fine, but you should spray on some more UV protector to keep it from hazing again.

 

Nice write up. But always comes back!

 

word

nice writeup, but after doing this you need to put some kind of uv protectant layer, as you've already removed all the original uv protectant. Thus the lenses will become yellow and dull again in no time, especially during the summer months

 

hit it with 320 then 1000 rubbing compund and a buffer thats what i do at my job crystal clear !
