Headlight Change
Hey everybody
I wanted to know if anyone can help me out
I have a 98 clk320 and I want to enhance it a lil by changing the headlights
I have xenons but I mean the outside it is a bit chewed up from the rocks and stuff
I just want to change the plastic or the outside of the lights to make it look newer. Where do I go
Thanks!

No and nor will plast x for long term results. Those headlights are caked and IMO plast-x is a joke don't waste your money...
I just refinished my headlights which were pretty bad. The only way to get your headlights back to a factory clean look is to sand them down. I literally just did mine a couple days ago and they look great. As mentioned in the add you may need to buy two kits because your headlight look pretty caked up
This is the kit I bought off ebay, check out the video too. It Works great!

Uh, yeah its for real, your basically sanding your headlights down and it's not the easiest process if you want a good outcome. It is a huge forearm workout but again well worth it. I would suggest using the lightest drill possible.
