bleach?.. I have 2 sets of lights.. might as well try it.. feel like he is trolling tho...

Glad to see progress!

The bleach thing is definitely not trolling - it's been done by a number of owners and usually has decent results.

Found on another forum :

" I had this problem on my '97 and just soaked the inner lenses in a bleach/water solution for a couple of days and they came out perfectly clear. I used about 1 cup of bleach in 1 gallon of water."

Day 734: Food supplies are running low, the paint shop have still not given the E38 back.

In the mean time my friend has pretty much finished his E38 so I'm going to threadjack this thread and show you his

Looks just like Ben Read's who done it first

Thanks man, since this got bumped I will give a little update.

Car looks more or less the same because its just blocking and blocking and blocking happening.

It was supposed to be finished last week, but it was not.

I offered a higher payment if the car was done last week with a "no rush" no paintjob.. they could not make it.

getting bi-xenons tho...
I have been looking for the inner lenses on the headlights as mine are quite yellowish.. is there any place that sells them? ( If you have this information and you share it with me the angel of luck will visit you and bless you with many luckz )

I haven't been on SW in forever and was hoping this thread didn't die. Good luck with getting it finished.
