at WalMart of all places.

This packet cost around 17 bucks, comes with two grades of sandpaper, some polish, and most importantly, an acrylic floor wax smelling stuff that goes on last. Instructions are included, and the more effort you put in the better the result. I was going to buy new ones till I tried this stuff, and there was enough left over to do my wife's Tacoma as well.

Yes, I've added new turns and side markers. The sides came from the JY and the turns from 50Resto.

Sorry for the dark pic, it was getting late in the evening Yes she needs paint, but one thing at a time Anyway, thought I'd share, and sorry if it's been posted already!

Wow, it even removes ugly red MUSTANG lettering! Neat!
Yea, I've used similar products, they've been around for many years. A lot depends on the material of the lens, and how bad it is.

BTW: Looks much better now.

That kit you purchased works GREAT. We sell it at my work, I've done it on my beater and my brothers car and both came out like brand new. I can speak from expierence they really do come out new, but they dont last too long. Mine has been like 4 months and they still look good but not brand new anymore. If you wanna do it right get a new set, if you want something that is temp for 20 bucks that kit works great.
