See, not so pretty. What can I do to shine them up. They aren't fogged, just funky on the outside and got some overspray on them.

 

Pop them out and follow the guide above for polishing taillights.

 

theres a article in superchevy a few months back or you could just make your own, or most " crash part" places sell em, not junkyards but like reproduction aftermarket stuff, keystone crash parts and certifit out here in co sell em for like 23 a pop, my buddys got em couldnt tell the difference...of course i like real clear.....

 

What guide above?

I was wanting to avoid the cost of replacing til I can see if I can clean them. I've found some good looking ones on the internet. I may have to replace them, just wanted to see if I could clean them.
Thanks guys

 

I'd just bite the bullet and get new ones, you wont regret it:



<---Old & New--->

I prefer clear as well, but with stock lenses

 

damn zed are those teh stock gm ones, new or reproductions...they look great

 

That's what I am saying. Those kick ****.

Hehehe, I bought some 1500 and 2000 grit sand paper today. I'll try that before I get new ones. I know, I know, but I am saving for a LT1 and T56...lol.

 

Thanks, they are new repros off eBay.

 

When i got my car they were all fogged up. My dad called up the pontiac dealer he used to work at though and we got some brand new GM ones for dealer price.

BTW, 915.7TPI i absolutely love you car!!

 

Know who you got them from? I would like to get some like that if I can if the sanding and buffing doesn't get me close to what I want. Thanks.

 

i dont remember exactly, "a1auto" or something like that? they are always selling thirdgen stuff on ebay

 

Ok. I remember them. I've looked at their stuff before.

a mack6, Thanks. I appreciate it. I was worried 3rd Gen people wouldn't like the SS/Z28 combo.

Favorite shot (exlcuding the outside)
Hehehe.

 

i just order some from 1a auto. they should be here tomorrow.

 

be sure to post some pics when they are installed

 

from 1aauto or whatever its called...

and you just cant beat new parking lights i tryed to revive my old ones...the inside is what looks really bad...Plastic just turns to nothing with age...you can only bring so much shine back out of it.

 

Those look sweet. I cleaned mine up some with the 2000 grit sandpaper and some scratch remover. They look better, but not good enough. I am going to order some new ones once my clear side markers make it in. I plan on getting some fog lights too. I'll post a pic once I get everything looking better.

On a side note, I took out my head lights today. Wet sanded them (they were new, just dirty) and repainted the bezels/mount things. Looks a ton better. Look at the pic and you can tell what I mean. They were like three different colors.

 

sad but true...all the plastic on my car looks 3x more shiny then the paint on my car...

just wait till my taillights are done...

 

I don't want to mess with my taillights. I need to fix one little spot on the driver's side, I don't want to mess with it. I might mess it up and/or make it worse. I'll do something sometime, just not now.

As for shiney, my black is awesome. However, my car isn't clear coated and the white really needs a wet sanding and a buff. I plan on wet sanding, clearing it and then buffing the whole car this spring.

BTW, Steve, you have any more pictures of your car? I would love to see some. Thnx.

 

I polished my tail lights up with mothers mag cleaner and a power ball. they look alot better know!

 

I've been meaning to get the power ball.
I got my clears in today. Hope to have them in once the rain goes away.
What headlights you guys use? I have some Sylvania Silverstars. I love them.
