Sweet.
Anyone knows where can get turtle wax headlamp restorer? The one that come with sandpad and stuff? And anyone knows how to remove irritating water stains on windscreen? Must use sandpaper as well? |

Plus, anyone can recommend any good detailing centre at Klang/Subang? If can, they'll do everything, from normal detailing to headlight restore, etc. TQ.

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Dec 10 2013, 01:30 PM) actually forget what i said, the sunscreen (headlamp protector lol) also rm5x-6x ady. so the whole kit should be over rm100 iinm. Nope. It removes the outside residue (squeaky clean now) but not the inside one. The plastic actually eats through the yellowish residue. Last time that one is they tried to promo their headlights restorer. Same results. Headlight still yellowish. Tomorrow I'll be trying on other car.anyways that looks damn nice! are you satisfied on the results? (and did you go btw do apply some sunscreen on the restored headlamps so your hard work won't be wasted  |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Dec 10 2013, 09:47 PM) well if you dare open up the headlamp you can give that a go well, in the box they kindly provided a very tiny packet of protection compound and a glove. thinking of sending this headlight for tinting. but yea, do consider plastic protection/sunscreens so in the future you won't have to (or at least not for a very long time) repeat again  |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Dec 10 2013, 11:09 PM) don't bother with headlamp tinting, waste of money and could be a safety issue as the headlamps are dimmed I was told that headlamp tinting works pretty well. And this car came with Xenons so I think not much difference. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Dec 10 2013, 11:12 PM) weekly/bi-weekly wash + headlamp protection products will do but the headlamp protection compound they provide is so little, can only use once. |
