Service Overview
UV exposure oxidizes polycarbonate headlight lenses, cutting light output dramatically and aging the whole front of the car. Restoration sands away the oxidation and reseals the lens.
The process involves multi-stage wet sanding, machine polishing, and a UV-resistant sealant on both headlight assemblies.
Signs You Need This Service
- Yellowed, cloudy or foggy lenses
- Noticeably dimmer night driving
- Failed inspection due to light output
- Car looks older than it should
Consequences of Ignoring It
- Up to 80% less light reaching the road at night
- Reduced reaction time and safety margin
- Eventually needing full assemblies at several hundred dollars each
Recommended Service Interval
Every 1–2 years depending on sun exposure, or whenever clarity noticeably drops.

Minimum service totals are not added on top of larger services — they only apply when a quoted service is below the minimum for your location. Distance fees typically begin outside our standard 15-mile service area.
Parts, fluids, distance, timing, and vehicle details are reviewed before we confirm your written quote.
Add-On Service: bundles with any other service at this price. Booked by itself, the Mobile Service Minimum applies — see our service policy.
