Front indicators/fog lights

[stephenowen]

What's the best solution for restoring the lens on the front bumper indicator/fog lights? Mine are marked and a bit cloudy. I like the clear look. If I cannot restore where is the best place to acquire a new set from other than OPC?

Toothpaste on a damp cloth rubbed into the lens, or if you have it a detailers cutting paste on a damp cloth

Cutting paste, I have got some Farcela. I will remove them and get my da on them, hopefully they will come up like new, thanks for the tip.

Stephen,

Once you‘ve restored them you need to apply a UV protective coating otherwise all your hard work will be in vain.

Sorry, can’t recall what I used - it was some time ago. Just have a look online for some ideas.

Autoglym do a complete kit for use with a battery drill- includes pads,Polish ,full instructions but not a protective lacquer -about £23 on the web

The front fogs are made from plastic and not glass?

Yep - plastic.

Thanks for the replies, all sorted now. I used super resin polish at first but it was hard work then I swapped the polish for ultimate compound and they became clear again. Thanks for all your help ??
