Other than polishing up your front headlights to get rid of the haze it looks great! The all black c6 z06's look killer.

Man bet your car looks really good with the berger and 69 badges. The wheels looks awesome in black too. Kind of wish I would have got them in black instead of chrome.

I think when i cleaned mine i started with a 400 grit, then 600, 800, 1500....if i were you i would start with the 800 grit....make sure you are wet sanding at all times and i got the best results going straight across the lenses....dont make circular motions....then buy some plastic polish, work it really well and they will look like new....oh dont remember but i might have gone all the way to 2000 grit.

i did mine starting out with red scotch brite for the bad parts. then over the whole thing with grey scotch brite. then spent forever going over them with 1500 sandpaper wet, then polished em with meguiers plastic polish it takes forever but its worth it

I am actually just about to do that ... it was the next mod on my list once I got some money ... Strano Springs and a Panhard Rod are coming within the next few weeks along with a few other odds and ends hopefully
