I'd covered both of my lenses with the clear protective tape from Griot's Garage. However Murphy was alive and well and directed a rock to the ~3mm gap at the lower edge on one side, just above the bumper. Yea, it cracked the lens. Geesh . . .

So I ordered a lens from IPD and made sure I covered ALL of the face with the clear tape this time. Can't remember what IPD charged.

I do remember the dealer parts guy giving me all sorts of warnings about not replacing the ENTIRE light assembly . . at North of $250. Gimme a break . . .
