UV/Yellowing Headlights protection

[kinelisch]

How do you protect your S650 from UV rays and yellowing in the headlights? I know this process takes years, but I was just wondering how you guys prevent this from happening. (For the people that park outside). Are there any good products or techniques out there?

PPF and or ceramic coating

Any spray or wipe on product (wax, polymer, ceramic, etc) that contains a UV inhibitor is a good choice.

Make sure you HL lenses are clean, spray some on and wipe/buff it off per instructions every couple of weeks and you're good to go!

When my DH was ceramic coated, they did the headlamps, too.

They don't. That's what this thread is about. Several options offered already.

I have a tint kit, it smokes every light on my mustang and prevents it from yellowing
