Bad Company, is there a quick cheap fix to restore the headlight? One of mine on my daily driver is pretty bad. The other looks brand new. Just want to go to Vato Zone and pick something up cheap. Thanks in advance.

3M and Meguiars makes a kit that you can purchase that should have everything you need. You will only need a drill (not optimal but does work).

Glad that tranny/clutch issue is taken care of! That thing was a pain to get into gear/drive. I have no idea how your poor wife was even able to drive it! lol

Hey bud, I believe Jason left you a message for you to give him a call. It's a good looking car though.

It's the least I could do for someone serving our country and letting me be able to do what I do. Much appreciated.

I've had this type of arrangement happen before and I've done the same thing. Last thing I want is for me to make it look great, sit for a while for the owner to get home and it is covered in dust or just dirty. Not very good for me or my image.
