thanks for the help...i got the headlights apart and fixed but is there a way to get the dirty yellow/faded look out of my lower clear corners?

Assuming I am thinking the same thing as you as far as the yellow/fading, there are two ways to help or get rid of it. the first or easiest is to use a product called plast-x by meguiars that cleans it up a little bit or the most efficient way is to snad it down with sand paper and getting to smaller and smaller grit up to 3000+ then clear coating over it. IT looks like brand new afterwards...

Sanding them down and clear coating them often times work the best to re store a crystal clear shine.Just remember that you should never clear coat over any thing finer than 800 grit or you will have serious de-lam problems (meaning your clear coat will not stick, and will start coming off) I'm think about doing this oven trick on my wifes car lol. I hope it works lmao!
