Default 06 and up Headlight

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace (with 03-05 plastic) or repair the plastic part of the headlight? The plastic has a spider web in it and I want to either replace or repair.

Can't buy the lense covers. Not even nissan sells them. your best bet is to find a broken set with a good lens or just buy some new/used lights

I don't know much about headlights, but can you retro fit the older 03-05 lens onto the 06+?

CinCity please chime in, but doesn't the lens itself also effect proper function of the HID? Or is it merely the projector? If the lenses are different on the OEM HID housings, then it's safe to say that the ones sold on Ebay are meant for halogen output.

The eBay lenses are low quality and are prone to scratch and/or fade a lot quicker.

they will fit, the problem is sealing them properly so that you dont get haze in the lens
