If you have the lexan style tops, the "glass" can be buffed out to remove scratches. If you are talking about the trim, you can do like I did with my last car and sand them down and spray a few coats of black paint on them.

I am going to do the trim, but what kind of paint do i need...and i dont know what my t-tops are made of, they are on a 91 Camaro, i think it the lexan. What do i buff them with?? Thanks a lot
Lexan is plastic. Otherwise they're glass. It should be easy to tell. I used a gloss black car paint from AutoZone to spray the t-tops, mostly because my car is already black and it matched up well. Normally you should use a satin finish black.

well i used some plastic glass filler stuff that's made to fill in plexglass and plastics and such. It definetly works well but, requires a lot of elbow greese. It gets out all the surface stuff but, the big stuff still shows.
My dad told me about being able to sand it down or such with a real fine sand paper then buff it out or such. He said he saw about it on the d.i.y. channel but, we can't seem to find it on the site and i'd love to know because, mine are still to scratched up for my liking. anyways i hope someone has an answer to this!
