Default Lens on fogs

Hey, does anyone know if just the fog lens on the fogs are replaceable? I got a used pair and there are lots of tiny little imperfections on the surface so it's not smooth. Will this hinder the light output or is it normal from wear thoughout the years?

I do not believe the lenses are replaceable. Im sure you could replace it but it might not seal properly if you take it apart or it could break.

THe scuffs and little chips are normal and are almost unavoidable unless you never drive the car. You could always wetsand the area down and re polish it to get some of those imperfections out. Light output wont be hindered, unless it is hazy and really chipped up.
