keeps coming back? how often do you wash your car?
Meguiar's PlastiX plastic cleaner and polish. I have seen ScratchX help too.

meguires plastic X, should do the work, but it depends on how bad it is.
Autozone has it somewhere on a shelf with the wax and stuff.

if the dealer takes it off every so often then my guess is it isn't that bad. for 40 bucks... maybe a 10-15 bucks fix elsewhere. just need the tools to do it yourself and save money.

Plastic X + buffer. you can get a cheap one at Autozone or even Sears.

Plasti-X +1 once again. Stuff works wounders.. there is a thread I started in the cleaning section last year. Several people posted up pictures of before and after use. Stuff is awsome especially for older headlights to.

heres the link http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=97337,
although I am having problems with buffing mine out, not exactly yellow....
same result as the guy that posted last on the thread. It looks like clear coat gone bad, kinda feels rough, and its a new car.

I've had three of them changed under warranty, whenever I see the slightest haze, I get it replaced. Buahahaha!

So are most of the meguair's pro products better enough then their normal consumer line to bother buying?
