sand it with like a 1500 grit sans paper then you buff it out man just try not to burn it with the buffer it will look good

plast-x and lots of buffing. some people sand them then buff them but I had pretty shitty luck with that procedure
here it is if you want to attempt it.A lot of people seem to do it and it turns out great. I did it 10-15 times and ended up replacing the lenses cause I couldnt get them clear again
