Cleaning Zenkis.
 
just to let you know if you use some silicone to seal up your headlights it will keep the water out and keep them clean for a long time. i did mine like 6 months ago and they still look clear. it beats spending money on new ones.

S14 zenki?

Yea how do you clean them. Because almost EVERY single s14 I see on the road got some fogged up, nasty lookin headlights. I mean I've never ever seen one with real nice clear ones. Thats actually a reason I don't want to get a s14, because all them fogged up headlights.

I just did this earlier today. My buddy has a special cleaner/polish his dad uses on the plastic back windshield of his BMW Z3. Its a BMW product then I followed up with a two step Meguiars plastic polish. Came out a lot better, not perfect but a huge improvment and much cheaper than replacements. If I can tommorow I will post a before/after.

:nono: There are many other options besides Kouki...you can get the Japanese lights (like mine), Euro lights which are glass, or you can get the Final Konexxion lights which are clear plastic. If you have to stick to your OEM...sand them w/ very light grit, then polish w/ metal polish (or what ever polish you prefer) and use a buffer on them to finish :thumb:

BTW, nice models ks2nr...I made one as well, check it out on page 2 of my cardomain page.

i have a 96 s14 with hids in them a mine were real yellow all i did was clean them with rubbing compound (1000-2000)grit then used the buffer i hav at work them came out great . also i was told you can bake the head light for like 4 min in the oven at like 400 digres . then take them apart and clean the inside for the best looking head lights . ( just dont keep them in that long or u will melt them .......)

Anyone know of a source for the Japanese version s14 zenki headlights, other than Ebay? Also, those Final Konnexion headlight/cornerlight combo is so sexxay
