Headlight Covers Are Cloudy

[Bill]

Hi Guys,

Over the years the acrylic headlight covers on my R34 have become cloudy.

My guess is that its the lovely UV rays at work...

Anyhow, is there anyway to bring them back to their origional glory, or is it just something that I have to live with?

or you could just save writing the PM and use the search function... or you could entertain me by posting up the reply you get from nismoid...

Hmmm.....

Did search first but didnt find anything.

Tried again with less specific search terms (should not have had acrylic in there) and have now found what I was looking for.

I normally buff them out with swirl remover every couple of weeks as that's how often my driver side headlight turns yellow. But if anyone else has a permanent solution to this, you are most welcome to share with all.
