I can attest to another great feature, the Head Lamp Replacements are 
quite durable. After a BMW 2002 snapped a rear axle on front of me I had 
one of those classic "Ouch, that is not going to buff out" moments. 
While I had to replace lots of sheet metal on the front corner, I did 
enjoy the irony of banging out the Head Lamp. A little glue to hold the 
sticker down and it was back in action! I was reminded of this recently 
during a dump run when I got rid of the mangled head light bucket and 
thought how the heck did I salvage that head light cover???
