    I think these things look really good when I've just laid them on. They're really pretty thick so they'd protect from stones. I already have a little chip in one from my mega trip last fall.

    Mav promised he'd install his first.....come on bud, I wanta see how it goes and get install tips!
    Gotta cool it with VX stuff for a few weeks at least... you can pretty much imagine Sonya standing just off-camera in each of the "Beach" thread pictures rolling her eyes and wondering when we can move on to taking pictures of the actual scenery. In all seriousness I'm slammed at work and traveling 2 out of the next 4 weeks, so I'll try to get them installed by the end of the month if possible.

    I sold the Borbets to RAZ and in the process met a fantastic wheel/headlight/body damage repair place that wants to take a look to see what they can do. Yes it will be more expensive than doing it yourself in the short run, but if I pay a professional to do it perfect once, then put these covers on and never need to d it again, I think it pays for itself.

    When I had my VX windows tinted, what, 5 years ago, I had the headlights covered in Lexan, hand cut and molded. Now I know we don't get a lot of UV issue's here in Washington State, but I have had no clouding issues since covering them.
