The new edge is looking good Luis. Headlights look like new now...Jeds got all the tricks maybe that's why his car always looks like a black mirror.

Looks good Luis! ![Thumb](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb.gif)
I can't believe that 3rd brakelight cost over $300! Glad you were able to revive it.

$150

Still, $7 for a bottle of Mother's polish or $150 for a new one?
