reeces555 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Right guys I've had a brand new drivers side headlight under insurance after a prang...however it now really highlights the fact that the other headlight has a yellowish colour which seems to be around the light bulb itself. .I do not want to be paying £600 to replace the light cluster..any ideas?

Payco Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Headlight restoration kit around £20.00. They are plastic and if you follow the guide they will come back like new. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Mcgoo Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 If you have any t-cut laying around that does the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p34nut Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 As most others have said use the restoration kit, it does wonders. Plastic from 90% of jap import cars does the same thing. Me and friends all had the same issues with our r33's. I used to keep a bottle of meguirs scratch x in the boot and go over them every so often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Brede Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Last time I used my polisher to do the bodywork I did a quick run over the headlights came up a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsniss350z Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Mine were pretty milky looking so i rubbed them down with 2500grit wet 'n' dry and then applied clear marine varnish. They came up looking like new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They came up looking like new. Yeah no need to buy expensive kits, just some wet and dry and anything abrasive will do the trick, metal polish, rubbing compound even toothpaste! The more elbow grease the better result, if you have a machine polisher then all the better Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
