Dude, I'm a painting tard bot. I'll do cams, suspension, headers, whatever, always hated paint work.

Buy some 1000 grit sandpaper, and while running water over the lens sand it with the paper. This is also a good time to sand off the part number that's raised there to give you a nice flat look.

After it dries it'll be all scuffed up. Wipe it down with some alcohol, and tape off everything that isn't the lens.

Shake can of VHT, apply VHT, let VHT dry, bask in your awesomeness.

If you F up, just wetsand it off and try again!

Sorry, missed this. If you know somebody with a vinyl machine you can get them cut up for you.
