Guess you didn't try one of the "severe" kits.


Those use several grades of sandpaper before the polish step. This was my 12 (soon to be 13) year old Honda's headlights. One looked pretty harsh when I first bought it, but I used one of the "severe" kits on it and it did very well.

Also do my Tacoma, but I have a set of OEM headlight assemblies for the day I can't get them polished out (or I've polished them until they are too thin to use...lol).

$75 for two headlight assemblies...guess you went aftermarket. I think my Tacoma assemblies were close to $200 each when I bought them. They're probably over $300 today.
