Bit of sanding on the headlights, and MOT woes...

[MikeCracknell]

And they look almost new.

Pleased with how they came out to be honest, never realised how simples it was to do it!

Before:

After:

And some general shots showing no progress other than partial cleanliness:

As for the MOT...well, it was hard work!

And had to have 4 new tyres too....so quite a cheap period on the 182 front if i'm honest

Worth it though

Headlights look miles better. Get some silver vision type indicator bulbs, they look silver but still flash orange. Will finish them off nicely

Good results, well done.

Car looks great, shame about the work needed though!

Nice job on the lamps, I did mine today by hand, (1000, 1200, 1500, 2000, 2500 grits) then some SRP to finish. They dont look half bad, 90% improvement for about 3 hours work. Although im gonna get some 3000 and maybe the next grade up and do them again just to finish them off properly. There are some small scratches and contours/clouding left, but you cant notice it until your heads about a foot away. . Cost about £17 to do, and got shed loads of of the above grits, plus some 600,which i didnt use for more than a minute on each lamp, for other jobs

I got someone else to do the lights, gave them £20, I'm not a dab hand at doing things myself lol, it would have been a mess!
