Default Tail light buffing in Houston area?

I finally got my LT1 tails and gloss black berger on, and the tails were a very good purchase, but they need a good buffing to match the brand new gloss panel. I am just wondering if you guys know a good shop I might be able to get a good deal on a buffing on the tails because I don't want to spend too much?

I would just do it yourself. Wetsanding and polishing tail lights is pretty easy, just time consuming.

anyone ever wet sand and polish their gauge cluster plastic? my plastic has some scratches in it. i have the 3 step novus kit and 400, 800, 1500 and 2000 grit sandpaper to knock out the headlights so i figured i'd knock it out while i was in the area.

thanks Micheal! i dont know how ive overlooked this one. however i do head and taillamp restoration and lense polishing. have repaired plenty of hazed ls1 lights. as for the instrument cluster it has to be sanded down with 2500 grit and foam pad buffed out. wetsanding it and doing the novus kit will not remove the sand scratches only conceal them till the solution dissapates. if you guys have any questions or need a pointer feel free to shoot me a pm.
