While I was working on the control arm mount, my lovely wife helped out by polishing and sealing the headlights on the Metro. They weren't horrific, but they certainly look a lot better now.

She used the method shown here: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...-uv-30237.html

This method uses a urethane sealer after the headlights are polished to provide UV protection.



Here is a before shot.






And an after shot.





Right side done, left side cleaned but not done.






Both sides done with urethane on them.
