Headlight damage

Well I don't know exactly what has happened to one of my headlights but does anyone know of a way to fix this DIY? Or at least make it look a bit better?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There's about a million threads here, along with maybe more on YouTube. Sand and polish. You can buy a kit from Mother's which will work well.

Best one you will get. You probably want to also get some more 1000/1500/2000 grit wet dry sandpaper though.

The best permanent fix is to just buy new lights and swap the clear cover over. Sanding/polishing is really only a temporary fix.
