Cloudy headlights are more than an eyesore. They cut your visibility at night and make a well-kept car look tired. Auto Cosmetic Solutions restores foggy, yellowed, and oxidized headlights to factory clarity with a professional multi-stage refinishing and polishing process, on-site at your location, for a fraction of the cost of new assemblies.
What Headlight Restoration Involves
Headlight lenses are polycarbonate plastic with a UV-protective coating applied at the factory. Southern California sun breaks that coating down over time, so the lens oxidizes, yellows, and clouds over. The damage is in that outer layer, not the lens itself. ACS removes the damaged layer with a professional multi-stage process: wet sanding through progressively finer grits, machine polishing, and a professional-grade UV sealant that restores the factory protective coating.
The result is a lens that looks new again, clear, bright, and optically correct. New headlight assemblies run hundreds of dollars per side, while mobile headlight restoration, sometimes called headlight refinishing or headlight polishing, achieves the same look on-site for far less. Both lenses are done in a single visit in under an hour, sealed to resist re-oxidizing for years.

Headlight restoration runs $195 to $300 for both lenses, restored in a single visit at your location. It is far cheaper than replacing the assemblies and brings clouded, yellowed lenses back to clear, so you see better at night and the front of the car looks years newer. You get your exact, no-obligation number before any work begins.
Every photo quote is a preliminary estimate. The only way to price a repair perfectly is to see it in person, in good light, up close, so your tech confirms the exact number on-site before any work begins. You always approve the final price first, which means you only ever pay for what your repair truly needs.
