C5 Lemans Headlight lenses
Hello, i was wondering does anyone know where i can order replacement lenses for this type of headlight unit? i also circled a questionable area on the lenses where iam unsure if the previous owner cut the lens to make them fit correctly or if its the original design,
i attempted to contact breathless racing but the email address is not any good

So, due to reasons, I have managed to break one of my lenses, too. I found out about one way that might work to repair them, depending on the type of crack. If the pieces fit flush without any gap whatsoever, you might be able to repair them with acrylic adhesive/solvent, Weld-On #3 or #4. I'll be trying it out in a few days.

Our lenses are based on the same design, but use a different material. The BPP lenses are acrylic which resists scratches, but are prone to cracking under the slightest stress or impact.
Our lenses are an impact-modified acrylic which is more flexible and can take pretty good beating (as well as machining/drilling) but are slightly more prone to scratches.
That being said, Bob_VII is right. The BPP optics are no improvement over stock.
