Can anyone please tell me how to clean the yellow tinge looking crap off the exterior of the headlight lens?

A tinting place used 'fly spray' on my mums car, that worked, but not on my set of lens!!!

Anything else works or how to get them cleaned/restored to near new again?

Because the eBay Angel Eyes (aftermarket ones) only fit the Coupe models!!!

usually the yellow tinge can be sanded off with fine sandpaper and then some plastic polish.

I'm currently trying to clear my clear cam cover using hydrogen peroxide (found a guide online) will let you know if it works as it should also apply.

Used that guide years back, and actually did the procedure on headlights that were previously "fixed" using can spray painted clear yesterday. OP look no further

What difference from the INVISION compared to the GLASSYLITE?

Anyone here used both of these products & have their own views & experiences on this???

I do headlight restorations all the time and for an off the shelf kit, the INVISION one is probably the best one out there as it gives you everything you need, and most importantly a proper UV coating to go over the headlights.

If something proper isn't put on the headlights they will quickly start to go yellow again.

The best process is multiple stages of wet sanding to remove all imperfections from the headlight, multiple stages of machine polishing to remove the sanding marks and then applying a properly bonding UV agent (I use Gyeon Trim).

Good luck :)

I got the Meguiar's Headlight Lens Correction Kit from Repco $65.

Includes the Sand Papers #1-#4.

Buffing Cloth with Polish & the UV Protectant Sealant Polish as the final stage! :)

I done mine in about 1:30hrs.

Could of been done neater with much more time as you say 'machine buffing' to remove all sanding marks from the previous user!!!

Here are the pix before & after of mine.

Road actually looks brighter now after the procedure with the HID's fitted ;)

    • Here is as close as we got to a direct comparison(3 vs 4inch exhaust), a tickle more boost, which I am sure was in part due to the exhaust.  Made 790 on more boost.

    • They work on really anything track related now. They do my mates r35 gtr and it's a weapon of a car.
    • I use the penrite 600f in my cars and have had no issues even at Townsville v8s when I drove that but I bled fluid end of day for just in case. Good value and a about 38-40 on sale. Use castrol srf on the supercars and no need to Bleed brakes over a race weekend. Do the 1000km with no issues. Over 120 a bottle I seen at repco. A quality brake pad is always a good starting point the ebc stuff I've seen let go after 2 sessions with heavier cars. I'd be going to a decent track pad and maybe those porsche air guides on the control arm to help with some air over the rotor. Helps on 86/brz with stock callipers.  
    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
