About This Service

Headlight Restoration & Lens Polishing

Over time, UV exposure and environmental contaminants cause headlight lenses to become hazy, yellowed, and cloudy — reducing light output by up to 80% and making your vehicle look older than it is. Our multi-step headlight restoration process removes oxidation, restores optical clarity, and applies a UV-protective sealant to keep your headlights clear for years. The result is dramatically improved nighttime visibility and a refreshed front-end appearance.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does headlight restoration last?

With our UV-protective sealant application, headlight restorations typically last 2-3 years before any re-treatment is needed. Without sealant, oxidation can return within 6-12 months. We always include UV protection with every restoration.

Can you fix headlights that are cracked or have moisture inside?

Our restoration service addresses exterior oxidation, yellowing, and hazing. Internal moisture (fogging) usually indicates a broken seal that requires the headlight assembly to be resealed or replaced. Minor surface cracks can sometimes be improved but may still be slightly visible.

Is headlight restoration worth it compared to buying new headlights?

Absolutely. New OEM headlight assemblies can cost $200-$800+ each. Our restoration service typically costs $50-$100 for both headlights and delivers crystal-clear results. It's one of the highest-ROI cosmetic services for vehicle appearance.
