    on mine I used 3 grades of wet sanding 800,1500,2000 then cleaned and dryed then sprayed with clear uv protected automotive laquer been more than a year still look as good as when i did them, which is not perfect but tons better than they were. advantages of the clear coat is they dont get hazy again, the clear can be wet sanded and polished if desired (I didnt) they can be washed compounded waxed just like the painted portions of your truck facebook_1481125100827.jpg facebook_1481125132613.jpg

    Took the door badges off. I did the tailgate when she was new, but was undecided on what to do with the doors.

    ^^^Nice! I didn't know they had a "Mirror" color option... what do you use to wax your truck with? You could shave in that reflection!

    Looks really good, man. Mind if I ask where you sourced the anti-UV laquer and how you applied it?
    I may take a stab at going with more levels of sanding but I'm interested in this material you used and how much it costs... The alternative is just pony up for a brand new set of OEM headlight lenses and I don't have to worry for at least a few years, LOL!

    It's not the wax that provides the gloss. That would be Wolfgang Finishing glaze in a LC Hydrotech tangerine pad. PC7424XP.

    I do like BLACKFIRE Black Ice for wax though. ;)

    I took all of mine off (except for the Toyota badge on the tailgate) the first month I had it. I love the way it looks now!
