H3T Peeling tail light lenses?

[SedonaBound]

Both of my tail lgt lenses have a plastic coating that's peeling from the edges. Is this common for an '09? Any suggestions on correcting it, short of replacement. I'm thinking of buffing them to remove the peeled stuff then sealing the edge, but if its going to keep peeling, I'll just live with it. Not a big deal but it looks nasty and its high enough to be very noticeable.

I have a set if you want to replace them.

I would definitely at least try buffing them to see if it helps!

Yeah, I think I'll scrape the peeling skin off, seal the edge w/some clear plastic coating, hit them with some 2000 grit wet sanding and polish them. I've never seen factory lenses peel that way before.

Maybe the previous owner used that clear coat stuff to keep the lens from getting scratched. Unfortunately you don't know if something will go bad until years later of having it applied.
