Just had my headlights polished today, because they were going milky and I thought I would post some pics of them.

The place I used was called GT Glass Technology and he comes out to you, I just had the plastic cut back and polished and they resealed

so they wont fade for a couple of years. Here is his number if you want to ring him 0412 844 697. Price will vary it depends on how bad you plastic is.

i think you can buy a tube of that polishing stuff, just rub it on and it comes up the same as that we did it too my car once it was similar to your r34. id imagine it would be cheaper by doing it ya self. cant remember what its called but id presume theyd sell it at autobarn n such places. its amazing how good it comes up and how different it looks

I had it done in Warradale He was from Chrisities Beach but im not sure how far he goes just give him a call.

pretty sure he is from lonsdale off o'sulluvans beach rd. , spoke to him a while back about polishing my scratched back window. from all reports he is the only person with the stuff to do it right in town ????

FYI, you can polish your own headlights for cheap as hell. using 2000grit wet sandpaper, polishing compound or aviation window polish.. and some masking tape to protect the rest of the car. a small buffer speeds the process but can be done by hand.

the auto stores plastic polish crap wont cut it , unless its not bad off. and dont forget some polish can stuff up some types of plastic

its not regular plastic its lexan , much stronger

The stuff that most people use including myself is meguiars PlastX.

just to save some money, it doesnt work if your lights are yellowing , it is a very mild abrasive .....most lights need more help then that provides.

you can use Megulars M105 it works a treat on lights

What was the price for getting yours rubbed back? I've been considering getting complete new headlights due to a small crack and really bad fogging, but that has come up really well :)

I payed $132 for both lights, beats buying new ones . Mine has cracking around the edges of the light which dont come out because its all the way through. but he will tell you if it can be done or not.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
