    Has anyone ever had problems with their morimoto headlight lens becoming extremely sun faded and yellowed? I’ve had them restored and a coating put on them and they still don’t look good. I’ve had them for about 3 years

    Post pics. That is covered under the 5 year warranty. Do not tell them that you did anything to them.

    pictures don’t really show it but they’re pretty yellowed. Can see it much better at night when the headlights are actually on

    IMG_3338.jpg Here’s a pic that shows it better. Can see the section covered by the hood compared to what’s been out in the open

    Send all of the pictures to the vendor that you purchased them from and they will submit a warranty claim and send a new set. I had PPF put on mine after they arrived. Just make sure you don't tell them that anything at all was done to them.
