XPEL Headlight Protector - Anyone Using This

I have been looking to protect these huge headlights from road rash and UV damage and came across this stuff on one of the car care forums I am a member of. It looks like this stuff will do the job and keep the lights looking good for a long time.

Anyone try it?

I used this kit on the front of my wife's 12 Maxima. I had my tint guy install just the sections I wanted clear bra'd. Basically the only part of the kit I did not use was the hood section and the side fender pcs (my choice). But used everything else and came out great.

The other product I have used on my vehicles with great results is the kits and pcs I've bought from Lamin-X and have applied them myself. For like side mirror signals & fog lights as well as tinted rear reflectors and 3rd rear brake light.

Awesome, thanks for the reply and the Ebay links. For that price it is worth taking a chance on. How long have you had it installed? Still looking good. Looking at their video it looks like it is pretty easy to install too.

Originally I was only thinking about the headlights. Now you have me thinking about the paint protection too.

I've used NUSOLIS's stuff on my benzo and have it on the max now, not on headlights.
I have put the film on my fogs before, on the benzo, overtime it does burn and becomes yellow...time frame is about 2-3 years though. After that you just remove it and re-stall it.
Good stuff otherwise!
