yes i know how to polish them (ive already read that article) but i want to know if anyone has the tail lights i metioned polished.

 

what kind of lights, the 82-84 trans am ones . or the 85-90 trans am ones or 85-92 firebird and formula ones or 91-92 trans am style ??????????????????????

 

In the pic. it shows 82-85 Base Firebird lights. The only way to polish them is lots of elbow grease. All the regular polishing techniques work, but its a PITA due to the louverd design.

Ive polished my 84 T/A lights. (Light sanding + compound). And they look good. But it is alot of work. And the results arent that spectacular, you wont get that smooth mirror finish you get w/ the smoother (later style) lights.

 

ttt. someone has to have done it right? and if not maybe ill add a part to the sticky on how to polish this kind of tail light.

 

if it helps i didn`t polish them i sanded and cleared mine
been on all summer we`ll see how they hold up this winter
