Terrific results. What products did you use for this task?

Thanks, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out and I don't feel like I need to buy replacements at this point.
I had to do quite a bit of sanding since some of the pitting was pretty deep. Luckily the plastic is pretty thick on these housings so you have plenty to work with. I went 500>800>1000>2000 for sanding then did a machine polish with Meguiars M105 and M205. Finished off with some of the UV sealant from one of my leftover headlight restore kits. Hopefully it holds up for now. I may apply a layer of PPF to them eventually but I think they will be fine for the time being since this is my weekend car.

drove through eureka springs this weekend (missed palooza by a week) for a wedding and drove up and down highway 23. I forgot how nice the area is and now im happy that I'm only about 3hrs from hw 23 so planning to go a couple times a year to drive the roads. I put Advan Apex tires on the GT4 and driving home in the rain they performed awesome.

Took my 2016 gt4 with 13k miles in for service-brake fluid flush, engine air filter, cabin air filter. $798. Even though I expected servicing a gt4 to be more, still not used to the increased cost.
