all you have to do to clean them is get some liquid polish and cut and polish it away! i did mine and they came up 200% better than what they looked before

i saw the bee racing car looks good

If you wanted R34 headlights to fit you'll have to get:

1. R34 Headlights $500-1000approx

2. R34 Bonnet $500-1000approx

3. R34 Frontbar (or aftermarket) $450-600?approx

4. URAS or Dude bee racing panels (which were made specificially for the purpose of fitting R34 parts on a R33) + spraying

guards estimated $800-1000,

5. Then you gonna get everything sprayed to match the colour of your car $500-$1000?

So all up if you wanted to do it at least $2500-$5000

IMO its not worth doing,

my 2 cents

i don't think its worth it IMO.

my 2 cents

yeah prob not lookin at spendin so much i was hoping the lights could be a simple swap but didnt really think so

[mad34]

if polishing yellow out doesn't work from the outside you may have to open the light itself up and clean the inside out.

big job but worth it rather than buying new headlights.

how do u pull the light apart isnt it stuck together

[mad34]

yeah it is very stuck together you have to use a hairdryer and a thin spatula to pull it apart.

i did it yesterday to my r34 it sucked to do but now it looks heaps better

will take you all day and you need to take your whole front bar off.

mite have to give it a go on the wkend is it easy puttin back 2gthr

[mad34]

yeah it was easy i used black windscreen sealer rubber/rtv silcone stuff to reseal it. just incase i need to open it again. Just be careful when opening it dont heat it too much in one area. Trust me it will look really good when you are done. My car now looks brand new worth the ball breaking effort.
