Replacing lenses? Renew your bezels as well
I replaced the headlight glass on my 202, which was cracked and pitted, and it really made the sun-bleached inner bezels that snap into the headlight housing stand out - in a bad way. They are supposed to be gray, but mine were yellowed from a decade of exposure. They have a part number, but no way to order apart from the whole assembly. What to do? Paint them!
I got some automotive-silver from Autozone, sanded them down a little, and sprayed them. Since I knew how to remove the headlights and lenses from doing the job already, they took 10 mins each. Then just needed a few mins for the bezels to dry. I did the whole thing in an hour. Before and after pics attached.
