Headlights / Wheels

[Balthane]

Hi folks,

How do I stop my headlights turning yellow after they have been polished?Also my alloy wheels are a bit kerbed and ratty. There is corrosion on them so full refurb would be costly  I am thinking of fitting some wheel trims to improve their appearance (car is light blue metallic.) Any recommendations or thoughtd?

Thanks in advance

If the headlights have been stripped of their protective coating then you either need to keep polishing them every couple of years or apply a clear coat - take a look at this video:

That's great. Thank you very much. Do you know if the IS250 has acrylic or polycarbonate headlight lenses?

Thanks in advance:winkiss:

Once polished they will need regular top ups of a uv sealant. I did mine when I first got it and keep them sealed / waxed

I'd assume polycarbonate as it is more impact resistant, and a reason why they yellow.

I would not have thought that you could fit wheel trims to these alloy wheels?

I assumed OP was referring to "Alloygators" or similar products.
