Re: UV Coating beginning to delaminate from front grille and headlamps. Solution?

I am personally not a fan of the glass headlights. They seem to be more susceptible to road rash and once they become hazy there is no way to repair them. I have imported a few sets of glass headlights over the years, and have not been happy with the clarity of them. I think a new (or well maintained) set of the plastic lights have a nicer look to them.

I'm not trying to step on anybody's toes. This is just my opinion based on my own experience.

Also, considering the plastic lights have lasted over 22 years and are only now JUST starting to lose their coating (only that small bubble on the grille), A new set of plastic lights should last for at least that long as well.
