I got in a minor front ender... some jerkoff in a parking lot cut me off. My new projector lense is buffed up a bit, no gouge, just a minor buff on the surface.

Ive searched the cit, does anyone know where I can get plastic polish to fix up the lense?

I checked both of those places, they have metal polish, I couldnt find any plastic polish. What section would it be in?

There's a place by chinook.... It's called industrial plastics and paint I think... they sell a product called Novi plastic pollish. I used it on my JDM's, and it did an alright job... takes a little work though.

It's kinda funny you got kicked out...the losers there tried to give me shit for testing their spray paint on the rack where there are already a million other stains from other people testing them out. He was all like, "you've committed a federal offence," and I was all like, "nigga j00 str8 trippin dawg. ill bust a cap in y0 ass biatch!!" then he was like, "aaaaaaaaaaaiiiiight"

the meguiers plastix is really good, gets rid of oxidation too. It fades away after a couple of months tho

I have a polish I use here at work on CR-39 plastic (similar to projector lenses). I use a buffing wheel and a hard polish for use on soft metals like gold and silver. I would recommend using this type, but be careful not to over do it.
