front lights looking old and tired

[joshhicky]

Is it just me but on my MK2 clio the front lights are looking really old and tired, its from 2003 so its quite old but they look like they have been on the car for allot longer then that.

Look in the guides section, sure there is a guide on polishing them back up. Only takes a few hours.

It makes so much difference, couple of hours, done.

I've gotta do it on the missus' new 172.

Meguiars even do a full restore kit now too!

So simple but makes such a difference!

Nice one guys thanks very much that's next on my to do list

 

[mad pierre]

Very handy come MOT time.

 

[DannyR]

This doesn't effect MOT

Surely if they're that bad it would?

 

[DannyR]

If they were completely brown yes but I'm yet to see that!

It's usually only the top edge that goes!

 

[mad pierre]

Mine are bad

If they are non Xenon i'd just buy some new ones, iirc around £60 each, makes all the difference.

 

[Tony Hunter]

But you are rich and lazy.

better putting it towards them than a tin of crap paint for badges/bullets and nipple ring imo

f**king hell looks like you had already started with some 40 grit!

It's nothing compared to a lot of Clio's I see over here.

 

[DannyR]

Lol did realise your location!

Probably a bit sunnier out there
