96GT performance upgrades

my father in-law tells me that you can remove the yellow from the headlights by using a mild rubbing compound and a electric buffer or drill with buffer pad on it and a little time. he tells me it was a chemical defect in the plastic that when exposed to the uv rays over time changes them to yellow. what your actually doing is very lightly peeling away a layer of the plastic. He said that he did it to a couple of cop cars he has worked on it took a while but it worked.

I'm going to try it tomorrow I'll let you know if it works.

cool ..yeah I've been meaning to try that but havent gotten around to it

let me know how it works for ya ...also, got any pics?
 
n.j. gt: Smoked headlights/corners look great! Nice license cover job also.

I also agree with Back2Mustangs' order with a shifter a the top of the list. The midpipe did the most for me and made it sound immediately better even with the stock catback.
