Lacquer is just wearing down...If you know a decent bodyshop, get the Lips stripped&re-polished, and re-Lacquered..

| like the man says, they would be laquered. autosol would be killing them, damaged might already be done because autosol is so coarse.
if they are mint get the resprayed, if not a wold say a refurb dude |
