Can these scratches be filled and polished on this console piece?
These scratches are from the sparks that landed there when I was cutting my shifter shorter with the dremel. Is there any solution I can use to fill in the scratches and sand or polish it down to a smooth surface again? This piece seems to be pretty expensive. Unless someone else has a new one for sale? It's off an LT1 automatic Firebird/Trans Am console.

You could wet sand it and then use a plastic polish to fix it. May be a little tricky if you can't get the clear plastic away from the console. Wet sand it with say 1000 grit, then 1500, then 2000 then get some plastic polish/cleaner and go at it. Shouldn't be much different than doing dulled tail lights as far as process.

is the sanding thing good for headlights too? When i got in an accident in Nov. they replaced one of my headlights, now the driver's side is nicer than the passenger side, and i had forgotten about it but my friend just came home after being gone and said something about it, so im lookn to fix it.
