Default New headlight assembly

Pretty sure the covers on my current headlight assembly are beyond repair. Is there an aftermarket brand which reproduces the OEM assembly? How much did this set you guys back for folks who have already replaced them? Pics & ideas welcomed.

I took mine to a detail shop and had them repair them when they detailed the car. Prob could of done it myself but they did a fantastic job and for 35 bucks it was worth not stressing over ******* them up.

you need to get someone at a body shop buff them up real nice, then lay a layer of clear on top of them so you can just wax them like the rest of the car.

^^^^^ What he said. If you don't put some type of finish/protectant on them they will degrade again pretty quickly.
