Hey nice job I've been looking for the same thing. Can you give me an idea about the price range? And where I could purchase from?

thanks guys, i bought the meguires plastx from walmart for i believe it was like 3.79 or something like that, then i went to advanced auto parts and bought the 1500 grit sandpaper, one package was 3.89 and was enough to do both my headlights and a friends, so yea bascially it cost me around 8 bucks plus about 30-40 minutes to do it,

Scrub them a couple more times each with the plastix and theyll really pop... Nice job though
