If your headlight lens are yellowed, I'd recommend using one of those restoration kits. You sand off the UV damaged plastic and then polish it clear again. Then I'd recommend finding LED bulbs for your 2008.

Thats all I got.

^^ What he said ^^

I just replaced the OEM halogen bulbs in my 2011 with LED bulbs. Incredible difference. It always felt like we were driving blind at night as the stock lights were fairly dim. The new LEDs light up the fence at the end of my street. I feel like an idiot for not swapping them out years ago.

I went with the Morimoto 2Stroke 3.0 lights. I swapped out the headlights, fog lights, and puddle lights at the same time - all from Morimoto. I absolutely love the headlights and the puddle lights. The projection fog lights are so-so. I wish they would've released the 4-Banger fog lights when I was looking. Oh well. The headlights more than make up for it.

Just get new enclosures. I've did Maguires and other restorations and none last like new ones. I put new ones on my grand am 2 years ago and like brand new. I did restores on those like every year. My blazer and Versa I've restored about every year too. I've been considering new for my expy2011. Its just starting to get bad
