So, here's the thing... I picked up this Boxster for a full resto-(light-mod) project. I knew what I was getting into with restoring a 986/996 and I was good with the costs involved... Well except for new factory xenon headlights. NOPE... I will not spend that kinda cash on that plastic!!! These lights were NASTY, I mean jacked-up bad. They were totally yellow and brown. Also they were pealing very badly. I tried restoring them myself a few times with store-bought kits, but I had no luck. Then I decided to let a local auto shop have a go at them. Well, they did an amazing job. I would have never thought these lights would ever look good again, but they came out looking new. I had them done in March and they are still looking great. So if you have a set of ugly eyes on your 986, it might be worth the trip to a reputable bodyshop to see what they can do for you. I know a lot of you guys would take this on yourself... But at the replacement cost on these light, when it came to sanding I wanted to leave it up to someone who has some experience with doing this specific job... Thank everyone and have a good one!!!
