JDM fog light lense restoration

Looks good. I had pretty good results using just the Meguire's headlight lens restoration kit on my FTP lenses on the FC, and my Protege5 & my son's Sentra headlights. In all three cases, I was dealing with just cloudy oxidized lenses, no major scratchs, so there was no need for sandpaper. Just used the polishing bonnet & polishing compound that came with the kit, and it really improved the clarity of the plastic. For the FTP's, it was necessary to remove them and do it on the workbench because I didn't want to mess up the bumper. Is it hard to remove the FC fog lights? If not, I think I'll try those next.

For the other cars, I just used masking tape to protect the bodywork around the lenses from the polishing bonnet.
