Default Headlights scratched....

I'm sure this issue has been dealt with before but I'm new here so forgive me...just took delivery tonight of a 2007 sc430. Unfortunately, the carrier scratched the headlight pretty bad. Just looking for some opinions as to whether or not this can be repaired to perfection....the carrier agreed to pay for it...just don't know if it's fixable without replacing it. Thanks !

Perfection?? Not a chance. Close in terms of a little cloudy is doable. But crystal clear again, not likely.

I'm afraid a scratch that deep will need replacing, let the carrier pay for it, that's why they have insurance. Good Luck

Have the carrier replaced/paid for both sides....then sell this set to our CL members...I'm first in line . Congrat on your 07 Sc430.
