Default Nasty headlights

My fox has some fucking gross nasty dingy ass yellow headlights, is there any way to get them lookin new again or should I just spend the 76 bux and buy a brand new 6pc set.. the car is being painted tomorrow, and these headlights are going to ruin my new sexy paint!

I'd say just get new ones, but you can try toothpaste. It helps a little.

Wetsand with a fine grit. Compound them and buff them. They won't look new but they will look 100x better.
