Turtle Wax Headlight Restorer
...is my new hero.

my tail lights had that old, worn out look... they even had some red spray paint on them, from the previous owner who decided to use spray paint OVER the paint & clear coat... and didn't bother to tape anything up.

it took some time, sweat, and a lot of elbow grease... but they look new!
i'd reccomend this product to anyone.
