Man were my headlights yellow seesh. Just cleaned then and they look like new and i was going to buy new ones lol. If anyone is interested on the products I used they are blue magics headlight restoration and meguiars plastix. So if you guys want to keep your headlights looking new use those products and you will not be disappointed

You should do a write up with pics (before and after) on this. Guess its too late now...

I just bought both of those products today. I'll post pictures of mine hopefully next week when I have a chance to do them. You wont belive how horrible my headlights look.

I couldnt find those products, but I used a headlight restoration kit I found at pep boys for about $10. Its just a little buffer pad you attach to a drill. Spray a little water and buff. They look significantly better, but i still want to try something else, see if they look even better. Where did you guys find this blue magic/plastix stuff? Auto zone and Pep boys didnt have it...

I got these both at a local autozone. They both work extremely well. I would check any place that carries car care products.

Here is mine before:

And after wetsand, polish, I also painted the interior housing black:

Wow, looks great. I didnt remove my lamp assembly to clean them. Just buffed 'em in place.

What kind of paint did you use? I'm interested in doing it to my headlights now. It looks really clean, good job!

ludemonkey82 · 06-09-2008, 03:32 PM

Krylon fusion plastic paint. Color: black, or you can try some other color to be different. I just think black looked best. I got the paint at autozone, so you should be able to find it at pretty much any car part place. There should also be write up on this site somewhere.
