question is how do you "buff " that out and make the headlights nice and shiny agian

Search! (Not just here try google.com)

Use a cutting compound/liquid then a Super Resin Polish, the dullness hopefully should only be on the outside. If its on the inside its time to open them up, which is a very time consuming task. I did it to mine just on the outside and they turned out quite well.

Recommended Products:
- Meguires Fine-Cut (Approx. $20)
- AutoGlym Super Resin Polish (100ml) (Approx. $15)
- Applicator Pad & Terry Cloth Towel (Approx. $5)

Your looking at approximately $40 to do the whole project. Its better if you can go halves with a mate or use products that you may already have laying around.

Cheers.

A friend got degreaser on his and now they are discoloured (brown). So just a tip to keep any solvent well away from plastics (expessially if they are transparent).
