    Just buy new stock ones to hold you by. Never get the spyder headlight, they are worse light output than factory ones.

    mine were that bad when i bought it. pulled em out, washed em, wet sanded starting with 220,then 400, then 600(reverse sanding direction with each grit to see refinement) then cleanem with wax and grease remover, then 3 coats of matrix universal clear(MS52). came out great. in the past ive used rusto auto clear in spray bombs and they came out good. more than 2 coats,though as spray bombs are thinned out quite a bit. i just happened to have some of the matrix so used it.
    theres other spray bombs that are better. ive read good things about spraymax, which is a true 2K clear.

Checking all the boxes , I've received my zzp Z3 kit, aem wideband gauge, 60# injectors, aem high fuel pump, turbo blanket, aeroforce OBD2 gauge, and a TEP HPS2 transmission. Taking it into a shop this week and hopefully have it on the dyno within 2 weeks.
