People also ask
How much does headlight restoration cost in Denver?
Both headlights start at $100. Most vehicles are $100–$175 depending on the vehicle and how oxidized the lenses are; one headlight is $50–$60. Caleb confirms the final price before starting. Use the calculator on this page for your estimated range.
Is headlight restoration cheaper than replacement?
Almost always. A single OEM assembly runs $250 on an older economy car and well past $2,000 on a modern matrix-LED luxury vehicle. Restoring both lenses typically costs less than 20% of replacing one.
Do you charge extra to come to me?
No. Mobile service inside 35 miles of Commerce City is included in the quoted price. We bring our own power and water — we only need a flat place to park.
Does the price change if only one headlight is bad?
Yes, one headlight costs $50–$60. We do recommend doing both so the pair matches and ages at the same rate.
Do you take card, cash or Apple Pay?
All three, on site, after you've seen the finished lenses.
Is there a fee if restoration can't fix my lens?
No. If we find a crack or moisture inside the housing, we tell you before starting and there's no charge.
Pricing questions
What exactly is included in the quoted price?
+
Multi-stage wet sanding (800 through 3000 grit), machine compounding and polishing, lens decontamination, and a professional-grade protective clearcoat that helps restoration typically last 3–5 years — plus the 3-year warranty and mobile travel inside our service radius.
Why is my quote different from my neighbor's?
+
Your estimate reflects vehicle type, the number of headlights, lens condition and the work involved, such as removing failing factory clear coat. Both headlights start at $100. Most vehicles are $100–$175 depending on the vehicle and how oxidized the lenses are; one headlight is $50–$60. Caleb confirms the final price before starting.
Will restoration pass a Colorado emissions or safety check?
+
Colorado requires functional head lamps under state vehicle lighting law. Restoration improves output and clarity; it does not change bulbs, wiring or aim, so a vehicle that was otherwise compliant stays compliant.
How long before I can drive or wash the car?
+
Drive immediately. Wait 24 hours before a pressure wash or automated car wash so the sealant fully cures.
Do you service fleets or multiple vehicles?
+
Yes — multi-vehicle work at one address is priced per vehicle with a volume discount. Call (303) 514-8037 with your count and we'll quote it.
What if the haze comes back?
+
At any point during your 3-year warranty, we come back and re-restore at no charge.

Our warranty
Every restoration includes a 3-year warranty. If your lenses fade noticeably at any point during your 3-year warranty, we come back out and redo them at no charge. The protective clearcoat we finish with helps restoration typically last 3–5 years in Colorado sun — and if a lens turns out to be cracked or holding internal moisture, we tell you before we start rather than selling you a restoration that can't fix it.
