Thanks for all of the support on this video! To everyone suggesting to "Simply buy new lights," these are around $750 PER SIDE bit.ly/30I5wwg I'll stick to the $20 polish for now! ;) To those suggesting to replace the lenses, unfortunately these are not designed to be taken apart (shame on BMW). Because of that, it would be a tremendous amount of work to disassemble them, and there are no official OEM or Genuine replacement lenses. For $20 and about an hour of my time, I'm satisfied with the results I got, even If I have to redo them in a year.

I've done several people's cars headlights including my own and a few things I've learned are that they turn out way better if they're already bad aka the original coating on the lenses is worn off if it's not and the lights are only bad at the top its a pain in the ass to make them look like new. As long as you reapply the coating that protects the lenses you shouldn't have to worry about resanding them, just don't forget.

Look for just the lenses, I think I paid $80 for each lens and they lasted about 4 years until I sold the car and got top dollar for the trade. bmw 3

@edgy1rocks
@edgy1rocks 4 года назад
Even if you could afford a new car, the depreciation of the vehicle once you drive it off the dealer's lot would make that a poor decision. I didn't have a garage when I bought my first BMW - (a 1982 320i, purchased new) and now, nearly 30 years later, I prefer letting someone else take the first big hit of depreciation. Properly serviced and cared for, these are very desirable rides! It really helps to have a garage though! Nice progress on yours! I'm still thinking about the kerosene heater...

@@navi6341 if you put transparent film after they are done it can last 2-3 years at least if you daily park outside.

Thanks for making this video ! Great job ! I'm not sure you got all the discoloration of that light where it was the worst... Also, you will always be faster and more efficient wet sanding anything, if you will get the hose and tape the metal end of it, so it does not scratch anything, and set it to drip a little water from the top of the lens the whole time you are sanding it. It will go way faster, and the results will be better.. I always use the highest grit wet or dry paper to finish the lens, like up to 4000 or higher grit and the lens is way easier to compound out what little sanding defects are still there..

Excellent presentation. Your calm voice and vernacular, and poised demeanor are exemplary. Comforting, encouraging. The work that went into music and production values were especially great. Best wishes. Hang in, but if it ever becomes less than a labor of love , say adios. As to critics do not even read dribble from disturbed people, it just clinically proves there was cromagnon dating. You can't help them, as their not breaking out the party hats when these guys show. Best wishes. But you have demonstrated talent here, pursue it, and incorporate other high subscriber blog site ideas if comfortable, it is not theft, it is a compliment to them and an industry given. Good luck.
