hi guys, its about my R34 headlights

i got this yellowish mark inside my headlight, well i dont quite know how to explain it but you guys probably know anyway the good old mark in old car headlight..

question is simple how to get rid off it??

I want it to be nice clear and shiny, i asked a guy who sells HIDs but he said if he opened it up, polish it, and close it again, it wouldnt be perfect and when rain comes, some water vapour will get inside and shit and leaves water marks..

cheers

I have pulled a few r31 lights apart with the oven method and did an awesome job of resealing and restoring them however a word of warning before you put the glass or plastic back on,make sure both parts are at ambient temperature before you do or you'll get condensation inside the glass/plastic and it seems to come back even if you turn the lights on for a while to dry it out,there's some physics involved not sure what, to avoid condensation,I put mine back together warm thinking to avoid this problem and got it, so I can only think to do the opposite and wait till everything is cool.

Also you'll find with r31 or 32/33/34 lights that they get discolouration on the outside underneath part because dirt seems to get under the factory coating they used to form the reflective base colour to the glass or plastic, I fix this by getting a razor rego sticker remover and scaping it all off clean then use some hi/temp aluminium engine enamel in a spray can, if they used silver, or another colour to suit, must be hi-temp paint though and after masking it up painting the bottom part in light layers 3 or 4 coats to get perfect cover,and voila,like brand new.Hope this helps Cheers Grey Pearl.
