thank cheers

Hi, Welcome to the forums!

If by what you say is that your headlights are delaminating then we have here a DIY guide on how to clean it up.

The FTO headlights have a small film to protect the headlight I think, and over time it peels of and it looks like skin peeling on your arm. That is what i mean by delaminating... anyway, have a look through the following link:

Hope that helps

thanx boris that might be exactly what i needed cheers man

I had the same problem myself...

all u need to do is get 3 grades of wet dry paper (try to get the lowest grades possible) starting from the most coarse paper sand off the film till u reach the plastic itself. after smoothing it down as much as possible, spray on a few thin coats of some good enamel paint and she should be good as new

hey guys did the headlights worked a dream took 3 hrs but ened up with a perfect job....all i did was sand down with 1200 grit then used kitten cut and polish....thanx everyone

Cool!
