Default Foglight Protectant Lens

Is there a specific place that sells "pre-cut" lens protective film like 3M, that can be placed on the folights, to protect from rock chips and such, or do you buy the film and apply it yourself. I bought some film, for the side of my 951, to apply some new film, where I removed the discolored yellow one previously, but never put it on. Would this be ok to put on the foglights?

should be OK - I used 3M's LightSkin product which is probably the same - just packaged and branded for polycarb headlights

Zims sells StoneGurd...or however it is spelled.
This stuff is worth it's weight in gold...especially with foglights.

I'm curious can the Stonegards or films be removed/replaced without making a new piece each time?

I have some sort of a second plastic lens over the top of my foglights as a rock guard, it's from the PO so I don't know where it came from, but it's very subtle.

New piece each time.
It has an adhesive backing.

I would go with precut if you have the budget....and the only reason is that when applying it around the edges can get kind of dirty if you have any overhang.
