--------------------------------------------------------------
so last week i was detaring the car with thinners (handy for removing tar)
and i wiped the passanger headlight with some thinners on the rag, after a few seconds little tiny Cracks started to appear
i ws shitting myself we all know the price of s15 lights!! so they where left like this :shocked:
Looked fairly ****ed if you ask me,
so cheapest replacement i could find was E500 for a pair :afro:
so with nothing to lose (as they looked ****ed anyway) i got a lot of diffrent grade sandpapers and started to work, it started really slow, even at 340 grit by hand nothing was coming off, so bit the bullet,
60 grit on a orbetel sander
it still took 2 hours at that to get below the level of the Cracks in the plastic
TBF even at this point it was looking bleek
but started working up the Grades of sand paper, topped off with a 2hour marathon rubbing session with 2500 grit, and a rub of polish...
:afro:
will go back over it again as there are a few rough places where i missed with the higher grades. but TBH it beats paying E500 for second hand scratched lights
now onto the interior
