Tried a headlight restore kit / toothpaste or the like to polish yours up?
I'd assume OEM would be best for quality, with composite headlights. If yours aren't oem, find some used ones and 'restore 'em. That would be my suggestion.

Where did you buy the headlights from? What brand are they?

Here is a link to the drivers side ones on Amazon.

Here are some passenger side options

Some of the pics by the sellers definitely look better than some

I am the one on the left.

I went to sams club- they do all the work to restore your plastic composite lights- they warranty against fade for 5 years- and its $30.00
they had me at the warranty:)
and yes- they look brand-new.

wet sand them with 600 grit then 1000 then 1500 and clear coat them should cost you less that 30 bucks and will look brand new if done right
