Easy enough to do? How many parts did you need to buy?

I used the 3m head light restoration kit, I recommend you buy the "complete kit" that is on amazon that also comes with "protectant" to make the headlights look nice longer, or do what I did and buy the "blue magic headlight lenssealer" to protect it from UV and the elements.
Make sure to be really thorough and take your time, AND DO IT IN PROPER LIGHT I kinda hurried on one light and it was getting dark and one light has some swirls you can see quite easily, but even then it still looks better then it did before lol.

That's awesome. I'm going to buy both of those. My headlights went from perfect to ugly too quickly.

Just some some youtube vid with acrylic werks, used on non laminated lights, they demonstrated on a G35, said they weren't laminated.

By hand, he removed the clouding from the headlight in realtime on the camera. Whilst it won't get scratches out, it looks pretty interesting.
