You can't even see them and they'll be easy and cheap to replace when worn out. I'd suggest you get a pair to save your hard work over the years. |
I might have to order those. I installed Lamin-X film on one of the headlights and am not happy with it. It has a fisheye look to it and thus is not crystal clear. The Xpel film on my E53 is much better but they don't offer it anymore.
Does the Weathertech film have a relief cut for the recess on the headlights? The Lamin-X ones don't, which I like, but with the orange peel look makes that a moot point. A local detailer was going to install another brand but it has a relief cut for that dip/recess in the lights.
