someone do Whistler mod? polish rims? clean headlights? Well I'm trying to see if someone around my area can do any of these things for me ... my headlights r kinda dull ok somehow look. Super dirty u know old , maybe someone can clean them up make them look new and also do the whistler mod to them? I have some 17in FIXSE forged wheels I want to get cleaned up .. looks like the face is machined and the lips are chrome ... they r super dirty and kinda beet up , do too the previous owner who had this car ... Wheels still look good from a way bacdk but dirty and banged up from up close , want to see if I can find somewhere to clean them up real good so they can look some what brand new . I'm located in the 528 friendswood area , I can travel to the pearland and alvin areas since i,m always around there thanks!

whistler mod...i have done that... its not too hard, not sure if a mustang can be done like that though, the sealant may be different than camaros, and the way the lens is setup it might not leave enough empty space to black out

Whistler Mod
Don't buy new headlights. My buddy wet sanded the lenses and sprayed two coats of clear.. Look how they came out. Too bad I did my whistler mod after and kinda faded parts of the lenses.
Looked like a brand new lense

Pematex makes a great headlight restorer, my stock lenses were way beyond repair but it worked great on my old F250's lights, which were yellow as hell. Its like 15 bucks from oreilly's, comes with 800-2500 grit paper and some plastic polish.

On a serious note… the whistler mod it\s just blacking out your headlights?
