I completely forgot about that one, that is probably the number one question anyone asks. I wish I could find this "chip" maybe a few fries and some cookie crumbs but no chip.


Huh, wonder why it wouldn't let me quote Mr. Cranium?
I found fries in thecopcar. I found a 357 sig cartridge in theothertwin.

Never really had a problem except with one state trooper who hates everyone. He was known for pulling over other police and Sheriff's that went through "his highway"

I work for a local hospital so the local law enforcement know who I am. Many of them love it and one offered to buy it off me.

Have you tried cleaning the headlights? It's amazing how much better a vehicle looks with clear headlights.

Yes.
My wife actually just did it last month. Just not home for some pretty pictures.

We where going to do a headlight swap but I couldn't find anything that I really liked and I need to add some work related parts in first.

I added new fog lights last week and now my headlights look awful...Thanks for reminding me to order new ones! You are just Mr. Helper with spending my money! :(
Maybe try one of those cheap headlight restoration kits at Advance Auto. Can't hurt. I actually used to do headlight restoration in my business.

I tried the Maguire’s kit on thecopcar. Looked good for a few weeks then bad again. I ended up getting a replacement set from Amazon.

Note cop car wearing its original hood.

Depending how bad they were, I'd sand with a palm sander, working down to a 2000 grit, then use a Maguire's plastic polish with a buffer, then I'd seal it with a 2 part epoxy type liquid with built in UV protection that would harden. Came out beautiful, and would last for years.WP_20151215_002.jpgWP_20151215_003.jpgWP_20151215_004.jpg
