Default Headlight Lens Degrading
My headlight lens have developed the condition seen in the pic. Looks like thousands of tiny imperfections. Outer lens feels smooth, though. Is it UV damage/oxidation? Can they be restored?

Mine looked like that and it was on the inside of the lens, I suspect from age, uv rays and heat from the bulbs.

Yeah, mine looks like it's on the inside, too. Bummer. Won't be buffing that out
