headlight protection

Hi

My husband and I just moved to NM and we are trying to find something that we can use to help keep the headlights on our mini and our other two cars clear. Which would be better, a headlamp bra/shield or Zanio? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Check out LaminX films. They are awesome. Took me less than an hour to install both (some Vinyl Application experience). They offer films in many colors, and 2 thicknesses of clear. They also offer a UV protective liquids to apply to them.

+1 on the LaminX film

I got the clear film for my Mini from some other source and it has been fine but the LaminX I got for my Miata is much thicker.

Even the thiner film has taken care of the MINI's headlights and kept them looking good.

However, be ready for some work/time to apply to the MINI's lights. The compound curve of the light does make it somewhat difficult to apply. Make sure you have a hair dryer handy to add some heat the the film as you apply & take your time.
