Can someone PM me on the price to make my headlight housing matte black?
Also, how do I get rid of the annoying fog that builds up in my headlight? I took it to the dealer and they buffed it out and most of it came off but there was still someleft and I want to get rid of it, PM on that too PLEASE!
Thanks

THat fog, or haze and oxidation, you speak of can be removed easily by a product by Meguiars called Plasti-x. You canbuy it at any automotive store. The product does WONDERS.

if the haze is INSIDE the housing (like mine), you have to bake the lights, open em up and then clean the inside. pm me and I can quote you on some headlight work prices.
