Park outside and want something to keep the headlights from yellowing, hazing etc. I don't mind buying in bulk and cutting to fit. What's the best for this application?

(for a Lexus not my 'vette)

Your Local XPEL dealer has a Plotter Machine and Software that can cut
the PPF to Cover Your LEXUS Lenses

PPF more for paint protection chips, etc. etc. I do not think PPF would stop UV damage on headlights since it's deterioration of the headlight plastic by the UV, the sun would still reach the plastic underneath. Someone chime in if they have an experience with a film to stop UV damage to plastic headlights

Thanks guys… I can get it pre-cut but if there’s something non pre-cut I’d go that way.

As long as we’re on this… what’s the best way to protect plastic headlights?

I use McKee's 37 Headlight Coating. So far no yellowing on my vehicles

PLEXUS Plastic Cleaner / Protectant / Polish

I believe the PPF is more for protection from road trash than for anything else. Cheap insurance for expensive exposed headlights.

If you want to prevent yellowing a good ceramic will do the trick. If they’re already yellow you need to wet sand and polish them first. Should really polish before adding ceramic regardless. If you’re worried about rock chips then PPF if your only option.

unless that road trash is a discarded tire tread But at least the ppf kept the pieces of the light together so I could keep driving while waiting for the dealer to order the $2,800 head light (my BMW).
