trudt me guys, I have used like 5 different products on my headlights, buffed them, and took it to a shop, it's not fixable. The next step is buying 07 headlights but not willing to drop $1400 on headlights at the moment. As sar as the bumper I def need to get it repainted and this time I will get a clear bra on it, just hav e to find someone in the area that will do custom clear bras. Thanks for all the complements!

If the oxidation is only on the outside of hte lense and not on the inside, it's def fixable. Trust me on that one. You need to get them recleared. It's much cheaper than getting new headlights. Go to a reptuable bodyshop and ask them about reclearing them.

Thanks for the help, will check into that, but I believe the last place I took it to said they couldn't fix it b/c it was on the inside, but I will go somewhere else and see what they think.

Are you still under warranty?? Those are covered if you have condensation in your lense... If not then pay $200-$250 and have Mr.Zipps black out the housing and he can reseal them so they are unfogged!!

Dont spend 1200-1400 on new lights!! CALL MR.ZIPPS!! They have a 1 year warranty on fogging...Just a thought, hope it helps...

Second note...

1. NICE WHEELS!! TK BUMPER is Beautiful as well...

2. Do you wash your car with sandpaper or just havent waxed it in a while.. I can see swirly marks all over the paint and your headlights are the worst I have ever seen on a Z.... I hope you take my advice

No not under warranty anymore, its an 03 with 67k miles. The car was all swirl scratched when I bought it but i got it beg of 05 with only 20k miles for right under $22k so it didnt matter much to me. It's a touring as well so they were going still for like $30k at the time. I waxed it about 4 months ago but I need to do it again.

Once you get the swirlies and headlights fixed you will be good to go... The rest of the car looks great!! I wasnt putting you down with my comment I was just joking with you!!
