The billet bowtie on the front started corroding so I needed to do something about it

Before

If you look close here you can see the biggest corrosion spot below the chrome plating

Jacob, you may be able to have the stock head lights sanded and recleared, that is what I am doing with the jeep.

I imagine it would be like smoking the tails........ except using smoke paint.

Use a clear with hardner in it like Spraymazx 2000
