Just got paint correction performed on my car, the guy spent 10 hours on the exterior, now for me to do the interior.





For the record, I would like to see if I can remove the headlight covers. Must take one out again and try it once more, but they were on there pretty good. Have a video of the car from 1 year before I bought it, they were on then....so they have been on for at least 4 or so years now. Wouldn't think it would be that hard to remove, but don't want to hurt the plastic lens.

If it is two sided adhesive tape, use dental floss to cut the adhesive between the eyelids and the headlight. Then clean up the adhesive.

Taking my "new to me" C2 in Ocean Blue Mettalic in for paint correction in a couple weeks...so looking forward to it. It won't take care of all of its warts (a few too many stone chips for that), but it should look good...hopefully as good as yours.. Will post then.

A few weeks ago on a dry lake (and yes, it's as much fun as it sounds like, even if the dust goes everywhere, aside from the cockpit):
