Very nice. What did you restore the headlight lenses with? When restoring the lenses, how long do you expect them to last before they start to fade again?

Keep in mind you can also just buy brand new headlight lenses for the E46.

I sanded the headlamps with Meg 1000-1500-2500 uni-grit sand paper. Then polish the haze off with Meg 105 compound and Meg 205 polish. Protection was opti-coat, the most durable coating on the market. should last at least 2 years.

I know just figured I might try restoring first if it's not to expensive.
