So I have to resand and paint the bezels since mine got all screwed up. Sanding the paint off this is being a b*tch. Would sandblasting be too much? Whats an easier way to sand the paint off this?

Ordered the LED halos and some new shrouds. Messed one up plus the one was looking crappy fixed with jb weld. Then when I get home from europe I'll buy a passenger headlight for the reflector and slam them back together. They're collecting dust in my garage and I don't like it!

Grab a sanding block and ~320 grit paper. How did you mess it up?
