So I bought a $25 dollar headlight kit from Crappy tire, made by 3M. I have some stuff on the inside that I couldn't get rid of but its about 100 times better.

I actually think yours turned out better. My kit was one that you do by hand...that drill is looking pretty fine at the moment haha.
Might have to give her a 2.0 using the Meguiars (I bought that kit back in April).93 R33 GTST - DD

True, but honestly, spending the money on that kit was worth it. Reusable (since you use next to nothing outta the bottle), and it takes like, 5-10 minutes per headlight. The hardest part is getting the lights out and back in lolOriginally posted by kengeroothat's what I thought when I opened the package..
...don't drink and ebay

I can't stress this enough, if your going to use a drill. DON'T TAKE TOO MUCH OFF.
Otherwise either the rub on rub off or the wet sand paper by hand is quick and easy.
Just make sure to use UV protection, sealer or what ever they call it, or else it won't
take long for them to start turning yellow again.14 VW Jetta TDI

What is this sealer stuff you speak of?
(I heard that some lucky people have been able to get stuff with 3 years warranty
for about 50 dollars + shipping a bottle that can do about 5 cars. But was told they
only sell to company blablabla same old crap.)
But for the time being if you don't mind putting a coat every time you wash your
car, or about 1-2 time a month if you don't wash it often, you can use products like
303 Protectant Aerospace Protectant, available at pretty much any Canadian Tire.14 VW Jetta TDI
