They are plastic.

OP, you can try buffing with polishing compound. Unfortunately, the paint may have stained the plastic deeply.

 

you could try color sanding it with 2000 then buffing it... i hate when people paint the yellow... it doesnt look good and it doesnt last long

 

thanks guys ill try the suggestions

 

i do tons of retrofits and i always buy high beam painted headlights. All i do is use 1500 then 2000 grit wet sand paper. It takes a while but it comes off. Then after all the yellow is off, i have some UV resistant clear coat i spray on, and that keeps the hazing from ever coming back and makes them look like a babies butt :D

I have done it many times, always with great success.

or.

i have a pair of 98+ headlights (that were never painted), i will trade you and ill just do the work. It's no big deal. Mine have nothign wrong with them. I'm not using them so might as well help you out. No .

 

the ones without any writing on them.
