Plastic fog light lenses for a facelift 210

Both of my stock lenses are broken and need to be replaced. If I buy some more OEM ones they'll break too.

Hopefully there are some plastic ones out there?

Thanks.

Quality OEM glass replacements are available from Autohaus for about 17$ per side. Buy lens film from Griots auto supply to cover and act as protective cushion and problem solved. Plastic lens are crap and scratch up very quickly from road debris and the car wash. There are other sources for the same products. That is just a sample to get you started.

yeah, get the glass fog lights, so much better than plastic. i wish they had made the headlight lens in glass like the foglights, this way they wouldn't fade like the plastics do.
