Before i did this they were very yellow and cloudy, but the worst bit was that nearly all the chrome had come off the rings and so lloked a nice browny yellowy plastic

 

They arnt perfect but are loads better than they were

I used 1500 wet and dry on the outer and inner (could actually see the water going yellow where it was coming off the lense) and then used Mer scratch remover did this a few times and then used a nice wax to finish the job and protect.

 

Have a go its really not that hard, hardest bit was masking everything to respray the chrome bits.

 

Thanks for all the postive comments too :D
