Headlights
Since I bought the car in Dec, i've been slowly replacing missing lost or slightly damaged parts, upgrading others and maintaining the new paint. This past week I finally got around to polishing and rejuvenating the headlights with Meguiars headlight resoration kit. The headlights weren't in horrible shape but had started to accumulate oxidation and pits due to regular driving. It is a 2004 and I do not believe they have ever been restored as most people do not bother. Here they are you may or may not notice a difference in the pics but trust me it really helped. When I turned the lights on there was definitely a more cleaner white shine to the output instead of a slight yellow tinge.
Can't wait to install the LED AP2 DRL's and Philips 6kk Ultinons!

Looks great. I like the Meguiars kit, and I use it on my car. It isn't as aggressive as other kits out there but I think that is good. They also give you the headlight sealant which is important to keep them maintained going forward. Nice work on the lights.

I used the 3M kit on mine yesterday and im happy with the results. My only wish was that they made the surface size of the pads a little smaller in diameter, as it was a little tricky to get the corners of the headlights without fear of bothering the paint.

I have and use the same kit. The S2K's lights look great. Took care of my BIL's Tiburon a few weeks ago and that ended up looking pretty good too.
Might not be aggressive enough for the wife's Accord. I guess I'll find out when I tackle that project.

shouldnt it be the other way around from most aggressive to least aggressive? 2000 to 2500 to 3000?
