Thanks again for all the comments guys. They're all very helpful.
@ GU357. Ok cool, if you think it'll help a bit more by filling in some of the cracks then I'll give it a try. I don't mind trying a few different kits, it'll still work out cheaper than new headlights haha.
EDIT: Wow that stuff's expensive. Looks like it'll cost me at least ~$40.
@ Apu. It's kinda hard to tell. It looks like it's only the top layer but there are so many cracks that it's hard to tell. I'd say there are a few that are further down in to the plastic but I can live with a few.
@ PHO. Thanks for the images, I can see he does do a superb job. I'm not really looking to spend that amount of money though. As nice as it would be to get them fully restored, I can't really afford to spend $300 on restoring them haha. But I may still see them and see what they say about restoring just the single lense or at least improving it a bit. Nice skyline too haha.
i tried using polish on mine, and light abbrasive products only good for scratches that arent deep. mine was quite pitted and that 35-40$ kit worked WONDERS!!
you need to wet sand the light a lot more, once all the peeling/scratches are gone then you start with the polish.
Edit: found some pics of mine, sorry for the dodgy pics but you can see how damaged my lens was and how it turned out after wet sanding then polishing.

@ TbM. Wow looks great. I'll knock my exams off this week and I'll get right on it.
@ GU357. Ok awesome, I'll still give it a shot then. Lets's hope it's worth it haha.
I'll get on this later in the week and post back with some results.
