theyre also working on Clear Replacement HEadlight housings, got some pics of them on ClubLexus, they look nice as. Only difference is they dont have the 'lump' on the edges of each headlight.

it would take forever to do yourself to sand down all the lines!
i dont think there is any pricing on there yet since theyre still working with the prototype but its getting very close now. ill keep an eye on the thread and let you guys know if any info is posted.

^ this guy in the thread posted this pic of his car and said "its a JDM OEM sanded clear" and since all you guys have imports i thought they were 'JDM OEM' haha maybe theirs are glass over there?

You can't sand out fissures in polycarbonate lenses. I'm interested.
I'm not sure if you're sure what you're talking about? (I sure as hell arn't!)
But, I've definately heard talk from a number of different people about them sanding the inside of their clear plastic to remove the lines over them and it appeared to have worked for them?
I think someone in WA has done it even... _________________

Nah I wasn't talking about the refractive raised lines on the lenses - my lenses have lots of tiny little cracks (fissures) in the polycarbonate so you can't sand them out. It's caused by UV and age.

I think I'm just going to start putting some $$ aside for when the exchange rate gets a little bit better and buy 2 new headlamp assys. It'll be about a grand but fuck it, dirty old headlights spoil the whole car.

yeah dude thats what its for. its meant to be a cover over the stock trims by the sounds of it though so you may need to trim it where necessary and line it up very carefully etc to get it to look as good as the picture.
your other option is to remove all the trims yourself and get them all polished up the clear seal them and put them back on.
