need help w/ my vent visors

Ok so I just bought some oem 4th gen vent visors for my lude of another guy. Only thing is the visors have a few scratches and blemishes. I was wondering if anyone knows what I can do to make them look like new? Can I wet sand them like one would do to headlights?

are you talking about the vents between the headlights?
If so, I would wetsand them with gradiating grit sandpapers, being careful not to press too hard with the heavy grit ones, then seal them with a clearcoat so they don't oxidize.

I don't know HOW well this would work on those types of visors, but maybe wet sanding with a very fine sand paper, then going over it with a polish?

If you look up the DIY polishing process for headlight housings, that may work for you... depending on how bad your damage is.
