Are the is350 headlights glass or plastic?

Hey guys I'm asking to see if the toothpaste method will work to clean our headlights. I read if it's plastic or acrylic then toothpaste could ruin it and leave scratch marks?

I recommend 3M and if you have the extra money to fork out, get the one that where you have that polishing thing. Wet sanding can be done by hand but results are way better when you have the power tool that polishes it

I highly highly recommend you to take a look at this DIY. Wet sanding and follow up with Plast X, great great result!
