I just purchased the clear covers for the headlights and fog lights from a company called xpel. They cut the product as you order. I am however kinda nervous about applying them myself instructions are simple, but i want a good clean longlasting install. HAs anyone done this themselves and if so even done by a pro what do they look like on the car any pics or testamonials? They also give a $1000 dollar warrenty for a broken or shattered lens due to impact, I am also hopeing this will help with sandblasting from other vehicals and the elements.

The $1000 should almost cover the cost of the headlights. (If they are adaptive)

My headlights are covered in my kit. I went with the people who did mine because they are part of an International company that can offer me lifetime warranty work and remedy nationwide. Most people who do this sort of thing in the US are small contractors and it would be very hard to collect on a warranty in a few years' time if they are no longer in business.
The place I went with also does the Ferrari and Maserati dealer's cars, several BMW dealers' cars, and some other high-end exotics. Their work is as good as you would expect for having such a high-profile client base. They claim to be the only kits that offer film that wraps under the lip of the hood's leading edge - a location that can get chipped rather easily. They took the roundel off before wrapping the hood piece, etc... very thorough job.
The company is Autobahnd. http://autobahndint.com/home.html
