And if you polish further, it will remove the lines over the projector and it looks gangsta.

I thought the lines were on the inside. Did you guys polish the inside too or just clean up the outside?

Lines are on the inside, these headlights just needed to be cleaned on the outside.

yes you can get headlight restore from advance or wherever but thick buffing wax will do the trick. it worked great on my buddys LS400.

ATF works too...
just rub it on, and it should clean it up quite a bit. its not earthshattering, but its a decent shine for a few days...
