i just use some meguiars paint cleaner wax stuff and they come out great
my bf asked what i use to get em so clean, bc hes seen them all foggy, and i told him and he used it on his car and it looked a lot better. id try that first before you do the sanding and all that and see if thats good for you.

No Don't Do IT! Black magic, wax, rubbing compound, WTF!
You guys probably don't care what your car looks like afterwards. There are professional products ONLY availible with a business license and we use them on customer's cars. We use only THE BEST products. My S2000 customers would settle for NOTHING less. This is a delicate process and you can screw up the surface by using abrasive products NOT meant for plastics. PM me and I will get you hooked up!

This is not a sales pitch Moderators, simply advise NOT to try something like this one their own.
