Any one else had this problem. I have only had the car 3months and so far I have cracked 1 headlight cover (£27 for a new set)and smashed 2 fog light covers (£24 a set). I know the covers are much cheaper than replacing the light unit but ffs 1 a month is a bit much !! Anyone have a spare clear fog cover to save me buying another pair ?

How are the covers breaking? Stones or what? If it is stones, the front/bonnet of your car must also be in a mess.

You must be really unlucky 'cus whenever I buy any, nothing ever breaks so it looks like I'm wasting my money (I'm not giving them up though)!

God knows what you're doing Ricky. I've driven my car around Central Scotland for the past 4yrs and I've only smashed two PIAA's. And that was my own fault for not protecting them with covers.
