Re: SAAB-aru 9-2x Aero Interior & Headlights
Nicely done. They will be blown away now that they can see at night as they are sitting in a pristine interior!

Great job! The owner is going to be thrilled.
What did you used on the headlights?

1000 then 2000 grit wet sand to cut through the oxidation. Then some old HD Headlight polish. Coated them with CQUARTZ UK 3.0

Do you think that you can achieve the same result without wet sanding?

On these in this condition, yes, but I like sanding as I can simply pull out my drill and knock-it-out in just a few minutes each. Start to finish on these was less than 30 minutes including clean up. Time is money as they say.
I've worked on much worse that take more sanding and a little longer though.

Except for the badges and the grill, the car is a Subaru WRX hatchback from the same era. It was built by Subaru in Japan. This is very similar to the "Toyobaru" twins we have today with the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 (a.k.a. Scion FRS)
The car looks amazing. Great job from end-to-end.
