I've not used it... I’m sure someone on here has. Film would be cheaper than the glass lenses while offering protection from road debris too.

I used the Lamin-X film. As far as i know there is no direct fit cutout, you need to cut it out yourself (easy).

I know we have talked about it over PM, but here is the same info in case someone else would like to know how I did mine.

I used this kit (https://www.xpel.com/products/headli...&submodel=1985).

It comes with 4 pre-cut pieces for the fogs and front turn signals. The fog pieces are only for the glass part of the lamp, not the trim pieces. Since I wasn't going to change the color on my turn signals, I cut the turn signal pieces up to make custom pieces for the foglight trim parts. It was pretty easy, you just need scissors and to keep the film hot and pliable with with a hair dryer.

One kit has all you need to do both lights.

I bought 1 'pack' (two sheets) of 6''x12'' yellow film. That was enough to do both fog lenses and the 4x trim pieces. Total was was $25.

Cool!
Does it wrap around the edges or is there some clear glass exposed?
