[quote=“JDMSIR,post:18,topic:35287"”] Tooth paste works also. I will try it on these and let ya know if toothpaste works or not. [/quote] those need to be wetsanded and then polished with a machine polisher using a heavy cutting pad and some abrasive polish. Will prob do the the trick better than this kit. ---

Added some clearcoat to protect the lenses. Hopefully in 6 months they will still look decent. Time will tell. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/stealtth/details/car002-1.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/stealtth/details/car002-1.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/stealtth/details/car003-1.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/stealtth/details/car003-1.jpg) ---
