Default Where to buy replacement headlight lens?

I'm a C3 owner. My uncle has a 2006 Corvette and he's looking to buy a pair of replacement headlight lenses. Where would be the best place to get replacements?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know if you're going to have any luck other than this, except for perhaps buying replacement head lamp assemblies and having them installed (lots of $$$ - - probably to the tune of $1,000 a side, unless you can do your own work. I've seen the assemblies at $675 a side from LKQ parts (used), but there's no telling what condition they are in.

Makes sense why I can't find any for sale online. The current lenses are faded and have tiny cracks so I'm sure my uncle wouldn't pay $1,000 a side just to fix that issue. Thanks for your help...I'll look into the Kickstarter campaign.

I bought my 2005 coupe a month ago. Needless to say, the lenses were terrible. Faded and all kinds of scratches. I spent about 4 hours on each one to get them almost like new. Started with 300 grit wet sanding and went to 2000 grit followed up with buffing with rubbing compound. If you want, send me your phone number and I will send you photos of before and after.
