Then polished it really good until it was crystal clear through sunlight. I didn't polish the inside though, just gave it a real good cleaning with soap cause I'm afraid to scratch it and it would be pretty hard to polish that. Good luck.
Thanks for the tips. I actually sprayed my headlights with one light coat of clear after i polished them last year, but now my clear is flaking off due to sun, so I need to tackle this soon

Haha, same here man. One side is more yellow than the other. Almost green to be honest.

Didn't get featured in Canibeat's coverage of the Wrong Fitment Crew Fest 2, but I got another one from Filthy Culture. So happy!

So, I finally sold my SC400. I'm done with owning coupes as a family car, and I had no intentions of daily driving my SC300. I spent my time waiting for a buyer looking for a family car. At first I was looking into ES300's. But I figured, I've been paying gas guzzler gas mileage for 5 years of ownership of the SC400, so might as well get into SUV's. I've always had SUV's and trucks anyways and kinda miss driving one. The hard part was finding a black on black one, with rear entertainment. Everything I find was usually up in NorCal about 8 hours drive from San Diego. Until the day my buyer confirmed that he's driving from Arizona to pick up my SC400, was when I found this black-mint-condition-garage-queen-beauty. It has all the bells and whistles when it came out back 2008 already included. Drove to the sellers place right after the SC400 was gone, and made a deal with the seller the same night. Just brought it home today and been driving it all day, and it drives like it just came out of the dealership. Here's my new baby beside my other baby. Two black beauties. Now I don't have any excuse not to do air, since my GX has factory air. LOL

Yeah man, decided to pull the trigger on this cause it was just too good to pass up. The truck is just in perfect condition in and out, and has every feature it came out with. Third row seats was off the car it's entire life and was just put in prior to sale. Previous owner didn't even know the rear entertainment had wireless headphones that came with it until he started looking for all the stuff for the sale. Lol

I'm trying to control myself on this one. It gets expensive quick with trucks. I just wanna do HID and tow hitch for now.

Thanks man! I remember almost buying your 97 5 speed! If only it was a black on black, I would've jumped on it in a snap!
