  • headlight question

    so my headlights have this nasty foggy film stuff on them. someone told me to go buy some plastic polish so i got some from like autozone and used it a few times. it kinda worked.... i think, but the fog is still noticable. i think if i kept doing it like once a week it would eventually come out, but that would take forever. its kinda an eyesore because everything else looks pretty good. so i read around, and here are my options:

    1. keep polishing. i dont really want to do this, partly because i dont know if it will reallly fix the problem, but also because i kinda want to spice up the look of my car. stock looks get boring, so i want to change it up some.

    2. whistler mod. nice look, but it doesnt really fix the fog. maybe i could keep polishing until it came out and then do whistler. but then again, would the black look wierd against my color? (silver) would it look cool if i did it to match the body color? i think so. like the new vette's. but would it even be noticable? chrome to silver is not much of a change. hmmm....

    3. halos. this option would be easiest, but also most expensive. i think it would look pretty cool to have halos, but what color? would black look too wierd? i think chrome would look better. also, wouldn't my stock headlight bulbs look kinda (really) bad next to the led-like halo lights? probably, so i would want to replace them with something brighter, but what? i dont know anything about the difference in like xenon, halogen, hid, or whatever else. also, i have heard that these leak. if they do, i dont want to do it. everyone says something different, so maybe it depends on the manufacturer. if anyone has some, where did you get them from, and do they leak?

    so. theres my thoughts in a few choppy, disorganized, pseudo-paragraphs. i want to do something, but im not real sure how much i want to spend. what do yall think? thanks in advance for any ideas.
