i frosted the actual interior of the lens (big mistake) in conjunction with painting the eyebrow piece itself white. could not remove the frosting paint from the lens. trying to remove it made it look 100x worse, so i just ordered a new headlight to replace it lol....if its not gonna look perfect, i dont want it on my car!

To reverse all you need to do is finish the kit, so i think the next step is using higher grit sand paper, so the next is 1000 grit, and then 2000 grit, and then you get a rotating polisher and it will blend in and look oem. I took some night pictures, will post when i download them.
