Anybody have any luck polishing their headlight lenses back to something close to original clarity? 2001 225 tt coupe

 

Sure.. they have kits at Advanced.

Are yours plastic? I didnt think Audi used plastic?

 

I saw this on Speed Channel the other day

I'm aware of the kits. I just want to know if anyone has tried any of the polishes and how well did they work? And I'm pretty sure the lenses are plastic.

 

I did it on a different car.. Had a kit that used preloaded pads in a drill... Worked pretty good.

 

Thanks. I'll look for a kit like that.

 

i've tried plastic polish applied by hand. total garbage. You need some sort of buffer for this type of work.

 

I've done the headlights on mine. I only spent 1/2 hour on each but turned out a lot better than before though it was not factory clear. I'm sure if I used power buffers and more time, I could clear it up much more. I forgot what product I used but the kits at the auto supply stores would probably work.

 

The 3M brand kit is on sale at Advanced for $5.. get'em now!

 

the kit at advanced is great if you sand properly and spend the time required (probably 30 minutes each light if you're good). They come out near-perfect.
