That's ok, I just wanted to give you a chance there. Tbh I'm not fussed on the aesthetics of the thing, rather how much a new headlamp would cost if I caught a stone...

Not wanting to dampen things down here but the Poly lens of modern headlights is extremely tough against stones and whatnot and those protector things seem to do nothing but make your headlights dirty behind them :|

In addition someone on here got a decent replacement headlight the other day for £15.00 :|

Forgot about the LHD but I'm not sure there's a significant risk of having a smashed headlight from a stone?

I dunno but you should see the front edge of my bonnet :shock: Which reminds me, I did buy a tin of paint but I'll be burgered if I can find it now. Off to the paint shop I guess :frown:
