NO!!! Don't even try it. It is NOT worth the headache.
You can get yours redone for much cheaper. they basically sand down the outside and get as much oxidized off as possible and then clear coat it. Couple hundred max and it looks pretty good. You just have to make sure it is a reputable shop doing it. I've seen a bunch that get so glossy that it looks like a hooker's nail....

I tried the plastic renew kits, even did a small test area sanding down and working my way up in steps to 1000 grit and polish. Looks good from a few feet away, but not what I'm looking for.

Hmm.. I haven't seen that done before. I'll check around to some body shops and see what they say.
