Headlight Sanding - Insides?

[20Drift]

Hi all,

Will throw an introduction thread up soon, as have just imported a car but spending every free minute doing bits whilst waiting for that V948 to turn up!

I‘ve wetsanded and polished my headlights twice (800/1000/1500/2000/Megs Ultimate Compound) but I can‘t get them to come up clear. The fronts are definitely clear and smooth, so wondering if I need to split the units and do the insides of the plastic? With the dipped beam I can see something on the inside (see pics) but not sure if these are salvageable or not - any advice?

Thanks!

Much better to buy new. I know spending nearly £400 on 'headlights' seems mad to people, but the difference is massive.

Thanks all! Where can I get replacements? Somewhere like Torque GT do them?

Honda sell them

Hendy Performance, Tegiwa etc or direct from Honda.

James at Hendy always looks after us lot. Just make sure you mention the recommendations on the forum and hell give you as much discount as he can

New is the only way for perfection unfortunately

I've always found my local honda dealer the same or cheaper than Hendy. Might be because I've got delivery too... I'd get a few prices and then choose

Tegiwa came in cheapest for me by a mile but I had to go and collect them due to them breaking in transit.

As above buy new. Best cosmetic enhancement you can do imo takes years off.
