    Does anyone know of anywhere or anyone that offers the service of refurbing my headlights? They are scratched to bits and look awful!

    Can do it yourself if you have various degrees of grit paper, some compound/scratch remover and a DA - there is a how to on here
    Alternatively you could by headlight restoration kit - but im not sure how good these are: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&k...l_8wwt2t2fsc_b

    Come to the next meet Keith, I'm sure if Evison brings his DA we can polish it out, I need mine doing again anyway so at least he'll have something to do

    I usually just sand, G6 with the DA and final polish, did just use Brasso and a rag last time tho, same effect...
