Would anyone here pay to have their headlights restored.
 
Not offering juz curious.The price of headlight lenses on a lot of cars is pretty expensive to replace.So having them restored or even doing it yourself is way more economical. For those of you not mechanically inclined,would you pay to have them restored if the need was there? :drinkup

I've see guys offering that here in Texas along with winshield chip repair etc

Here in Florida people go door to door selling head/tail light restoring.

The bad thing is they go back to looking like shit pretty quickly.
There's a detail guy around here that offers the service.
It's not something I would go out of my way to have done though.

What are you doing to necessitate restoring your headlights?

I would.Yes.

there's a $15 bottle of cleaner at the auto parts store that works wonders. I'm also told that toothpaste works good.

I wouldn't pay for it. I'm (kind of) a car guy, I do tune ups and oil changes and small repairs so I'd just clean my headlights myself.

Have never heard of this before, odd.

Expensive car I would park in covered parking and the sun wouldn't fuck them up in the first place.

Cheap car... covers are cheap.. like the car.

You can do it yourself with a foam applicator pad, some elbow grease and a swirl mark or fine cut rubbing compound.

Should have gotten clear UV film to protect them from the sun.
