No they need to be wet sanded then cleared and then wet sanded again so they can be functional again.

you can do without wetsanding before clearing, thats only going to take off layers of tint and make it lighter anyway.

get some pics up of the finished result!

Yea i know who did it and she got what was coming to her, and Thanks much. I'm gonna go to the junk yard by my house and see if there is a newer trunk in the pile somewhere, i have seen a few neons go in there with front end damage so i might get super lucky.
