a good way to make them shine again is the process of 400-800-1200-2000 grit sandpaper, followed a fresh coat of a nice product called scratchX by meguiars, and then some wax. Makes em shine real nice

Be aware by sanding it you take off the UV coating, so it will yellow in a few months again

IN a few months when it yellows, just re sand and all that, or just hit it with scratch x and wax?
Thanks

Why don't you just buy a set on eBay? They're not that expensive and you won't have to worry about them yellowing for a long time. They're an "OEM replica" I guess you would call them, but I bought a set for my mom's '98 Sunfire and they fit and look great. No complaints at all. Great company to deal with too.
