I just finished doing that. I will take pics tomorrow. They look soooo much better. Sanding and polishing with the red foam ball drill thingy is the only way to go!

I like the black-on-black look. Wonder how smoked lights would look too? ;)

Get some updated pix tomorrow at the meet - wanna see how the headlights came out. I might try that on my GF's Camry too.
