I was looking for someone to restore my headlights and foglights in the bay area and Ryan (RTIS250) recommended me Immaculate Reflections. Jeff usually works around south bay and Sacramento area, but he took the time to drive all the way out here to where I live (Hayward) and made sure when he would be arriving.

Jeff did a very good job, I watched him do almost the whole restoration (I was working from home at the same time) He took his time and carefully inspected the headlights like a professional detailer would do. He carefully masked around the headlights so he wouldn't harm my paint. After he was finished restoring the headlights and foglights, he applied some sort of sealant and he warranties it for as long as you own the car!

Some background about my car, I just recently bought this car it has over 100k miles on it and has been driven by the previous owner to and back from Santa Rosa to Sacramento most of those miles. So with that many miles, the headlight and foglights, they needed the restoration badly. It seemed like the previous owner tried to get the headlights restored as well, but came out terrible.

So here are the before:
















After:










I'm not advertising for him (well kinda am, but just really excited how nice my car looks now by just restoring the headlights) but I know there are looking here who have worst or just as bad headlights as I did this was well worth the investment!

Very nice work!

 

Looks great now!! I had pretty beat up headlights before, and after getting them restored, they look amazing!

 

lol, I assume you mean Ryan (RTIS250), not Ray.

I've been meaning to get Jeff to detail my car one of these days, looks like I should have him fix up my headlights too.

 

haha yea thanks for catching that. yea jeff does awesome detailing, its too bad i don't have a garage for him to work in, otherwise i'd get him to do a full detail on my car as well. time to look for once i guess

 

they look great now!!

 

Glad everything worked out! They look great! You definitely wont regret it if you let him do a full detail, hes the only one i let touch my cars!

 

hmm tempting!!

 

Just go to wall-mart and buy a bottle of scratch and scuff remover for auto paint make sure your not getting a highly abbrasive one (should be less than 5 dollars) and use it on your headlights..with nice clean cloth and bam works better than anything else! And costs a couple bucks and works wonders.. I use it all the time and im amazed on how it works..

 

I can't say all headlights are the same condition so yours might've not been as bad as mine, but mine were in VERY terrible condition. PLUS Jeff gives a lifetime warranty as long as you own the car, he said he'll do it again for free if it ever goes bad

 

After some urging, I finally joined up here, so thought I'd answer some questions and lend a hand where needed

I'd love to take car of it for you. Just let me know!

Thanks for the referral Ryan!

What works for one set of headlights will not always work for all headlights. Some plastics polish out easier than others. You're also not getting any permanent sealant to protect the lenses from deteriorating again.

Thats correct. The coating I used is called Opti-Coat by Optimum. For those that need convincing of its merits, do a search on Autopia or Autogeek for it and you'll see how amazing and legit this stuff is. Its not like the snake oil they try to sell at the dealerships.

 

wow those headlights look 100x better!

 

flawless!!! i may have him come on out and work on my mercedes =O they are almost due for restoration! thanks for the link up and photos! very detailed!

 

Restoring lights takes more than that, some requires wetsanding with 2000-2500grit then machine polish/buff after
