Replacement Headlight Lenses?

Hey I was wondering if it is possible to simply get replacement headlight lenses for a 2003 Infiniti G35 sedan? I can't seem to find any online. The headlights work fine and everything. It's just that they're really cloudy. i've cleaned them before but it always comes back after about a month.

Thanks

I have the same problem, but the lenses only are not available by themselves. I hope someone will pop in and tell us what to use to protect the restored lenses.

Amazon.com: Blue Magic 730-6 Headlight Lens Sealer - 8 oz.: Automotive Amazon.com: Blue Magic 730-6 Headlight Lens Sealer - 8 oz.: Automotive

after you clean them.. use this to seal them.. lasts a long time..
double-coat it. and don't drive the car for overnight..

in fact, when you wash you car, just spray the headlights with water.. no soap/wax, etc..
should last 6+ months.

When I had to have body work done and the car was in the paint shop anyway, I had them clear coat the lenses after a polish. Presto: brilliant lenses, lifetime warranty for no fog-up from a very reputable shop. Not cheap but worth it to me.

Is it possible to buy just the lenses because I could never find it online?

OEM headlights are pretty expensive and idk if it's worth it.

No just buy the cheap ebay ones and bake them and swap lenses. A few of my buddies have done it and it worked out great.

3M makes the best headlight restoration kit on the market it's stupid to spend $$ buying/swapping lenses when your's will look like new!

This makes no sense to me. Why can't anyone find a reasonable source of headlight plastic?

I actually tried. You can't just order lenses from a manufacturer. But if you want to spend 10k for r/d and molds, feel free. Great sources on alibaba

Yeah go a head and try the 3m way. Its usually not that simple to keep them looking amazing 6 months after using the kit.
