get whitening toothpaste and apply it to your headlights like you're rubbing a chicken...you should really see that the white foam turns to yellow, if not then you're using weaksauce toothpaste

Looks great especially with the wheels/tires/stance. Meguiars PlastX works on headlights also (probably no different than toothpaste, except the lens won't taste as minty) and Plexus seems to help as a finishing polish/protector.

Nice SC

just spread the toothpaste all over the headlights, it will look real dried-up, let it sit for a few minutes, then wipe off with a damp/dry cloth, not sure about if toothpaste will hurt the clear coat/paint but just try not to get any on the paint anyway just in case.

We interrupt your program to bring you a news channel 10 news break...
kinda strange place to take pics lol. Must be looking for some air time with your car!

It looks a ton better than before. It looks like they're 17s on the car now, i would up it to 18s, it would look even better. Definitely an improvement over before.

Hey thanks guys. Yeah I've been wanting to take pics in front of that building for a long time. The shade was just right so I couldn't pass it up! Yes they are seventeens, I don't want to up the size anymore because I can't afford tires! Lol. I'll have to try out the toothpaste thing pretty soon. I'll probably do it when I decide to take the headlight apart to do some cleaning in there and reseal it.
