i have seen some older tyc and they looked terrible like someone spilt chemical on it. i think there is a coating becasue the plastic is so cheap, then once the coating washes away, the plastic gets discolored. just stay with stock headlights. I actually got some lamin-x but its very thick so you will see it on the sides and even on the headlight because its just sticky vinyl. just put some wax on the headlights and you'll be fine.
