To keep all plastic lenses looking brand new, I use NuFinish on all the lenses on my FJ and to this day, they all look brand new. My Saab and motorcycles get the same treatment. You'll never have to worry about having to do that ever again. 🙂
Thanks for the tip! I'm going to try that next time.
Thank you very much for this video!
Glad you found it helpful!
I recently upgraded my headlights to projection had a custom set domd by freedom Retrofits his work is amazing told him to make them his own and wow I was blown away
Can you let us know what it cost, and what the benefits are? I haven't looked into any projector beams yet.
@@LiL13izzy7 Having projector headlights you get a better beam of light It's really more controllable
Nice job. gotta do my FJ now...
Thanks!
Your video was helpful. Thanks!
Glad you found it helpful!
Thank you. I wondered if those kits were any good
It certainly makes the job a lot easier.
Great job!! Those beamers look like new!!! Wow ! Also was another vid where the sealant used was a Krylon spray clear coat. But I’ll try this kit (several cars to benefit from it.). Also,..What do you like best for restoring the black, bumper and rubber trim. I hear Mother’s back to black is good. Thanks and cheers,.. excellent as always.
Thanks! I've used this headlight kit on at least four other cars. It is definitely worth the money. I have been meaning to do a follow up to my initial comparison. Everybody loves cerakote, and it is the superior product, however it runs streaky upon application. Personally I would not apply it to rubber. It will definitely last longer than any other product, but I would go with Mothers or ArmorAll, which has a more consistent finish, even if I have to apply more frequently throughout the year.
Great video. Whats the mix in the spray bottle?
Water
I used a lemon and baking soda it came right off. 😊
Nice work! I also need to do it in my 2018 FJ. My headlights and indicators lights are in worst condition because of sandstorms in Saudi Arabia. Is anyone here, knows if the procedure and materials works with indicators lights?
It should be the same, I believe. The compound they provide is called Plast-X, which is formulated for plastic. Modern headlights lenses are no longer made of glass like they used to make them (they're polycarbonate plastic)
Are you going to upgrade the lights to projector lens?
I don't have any plans to in the near future.
Is it really necessary to remove the grille ?
It makes the sanding and buffing easier.
@@LiL13izzy7 makes sense. Great vid my guy
How long do you expect this to last?
I'm not sure, but I can do a follow up later on in the future with how it's working out.
@@paulg2540 same Meguiars product?
@@paulg2540 that's reassuring. Meguiars makes some great products, and I'm glad to hear it's holding up for you after 2 years and counting.
@@paulg2540 I've wondered what the Bilsteins are like compared to the stock suspension. Let me know how it works out for you.
