Looks awesome! Could you post a shot where you can see the whole thing? Like the before shot? Thanks.

Looks awesome man.

I did the same thing to my car. I used the compounds and buffing wheels on a drill, starting at Emery working my way up to the jewelers rouge.

Then I hit them with Eagle One aluminum polish, and they look great.

Good work, I like it

Very nice MD! Anything else planned, or is that all for now?

Looks great!! What are those two yellow lines that are on the red part of the light? Is that just a reflection at the sunlight? It isn't noticable in the before picture.

great looking, kinda gives me some ideas

devianb

Sharp. I just use regular car wax to make them shine.

MdFormula350

yesfan2000: most likely the camera/sunlight reflection.

RED92BIRD305

Looks good how long did it take? and did you do it by hand or with a polisher ??

joshp14

Don't go through all of the work and sand them just so they look 'OK'. Get yourself some plastic polishing compound from Eastwood and presto! Just a quick buff and you're done!

I used Blue Magic polish on mine.

very nice, i'd like to see your t-tops when you are done.

devianb

Those Two yellow lines are reflection stripes. You are not suppossed to see them unless light (like from a passing car at night) shines on them as a safty device for oncoming motorists so they don't run into the back of your car.

MD Formula must have used a flash on that one shot.

MdFormula350

RED92BIRD305: about an hour about.

joshp14: didnt have enough time to order it, get it, etc..
but i am going to buy it soon then polish with my buffer.

devianb: i used flash indeed, woops

thanks everyone, i will try and work on the t-tops soon.

Nice job. I think that that mod adds alot to firebirds and t/as,

What I used on my taillights and front turn signals was the most abrasive rubbing compound for paint I had in the shop and HOLY SMOKES it made a big difference. The front turn signals were very cloudy and sun-faded; after using the polish you can clearly see the inner reflectors (like on a new one - but not that clear). The tail lights just seemed to have a much richer contrast - It was well worth while.

MdFormula350

this kinda shows the shine of them.

Big Improvement, can't wait to see the t-tops when you're done. I need to get around to doing my lights and tops one day...

unvc92camarors

hey, no pics till the event is over dude. LoL. Tail lights looked good man.

yesfan2000

Yeah, that tan interior looks great...especially on black cars with t-tops. It's a pain to keep clean, but definately worth it.
