8 headlights - that's going to take a while.

What line of work are you in? Are you a foreman? (get it?)

and welcome....front lights cloudy?? i had this on my X5 and Z4 and followed the rub down with 1500 grit wet & dry without water...yes sounds drastic, then 2500 wet and dry with water. Then hit the lens with paint restoration through to wax compound using the DA polisher. Results were brilliant. Just need to make sure the restored lenses have a UV wax/treatment reapplied as this is removed in the process (all the kits seem to supply this). You could try tooth paste, baking powder, vinegar etc however the results are very short term. Good luck
