Hello guys as you will see from the new members section I am new and eager.

 

I want to buy the hks ssqv BOV however where is the best place??

 

Obviously my first thought was eBay however there are a few fake ones knocking around so wondering other supra owners experience with this.

 

Also does the toothpaste on the headlight trick actually work?

 

cheers guys :)

Abz whats the best method to use?

 

For the toothpaste? I just applied it onto the headlight & once it hazed I went over it with a clean cloth, IIRC as it was quite a few years ago. I ended up changing them to glass headlights as I was fed up of cleaning them... twice :D

Toothpaste is slightly abrasive, so if you want to give it a go, apply and work it with a cloth. You'll probably then need to polish it back up to clear.

 

The best method imo is to wetsand them with 2k grit wet and dry, then buff with a machine polisher and some compound.

 

2k then 3k, then use a DA over rotary as plastic doesn't always like the heat, works wonders ;)
