Yeah I’d be beyond unhappy if they peel anytime soon. I’m spraying that back panel + the tails with Adam’s Graphene detail spray every week. My car mostly gets dusty rather than dirty.

As others have mentioned you can fix head/tailights pretty easily. Wet sand with 1500 or grey scotch brite pad. Clean + re-clear. They’ll look new again and hopefully last much longer. I owned a bumper repair biz for 22 years and got asked weekly to fix foggy lenses. PM me if you need any help.

Good luck getting a new set👍🏼

Still waiting for CJ to respond. Winjet said they'd forward my concern to their quality control department.

CJ's is sending me a new set. This is the last set they'll send me. Hopefully they survive or I'll have to pick a new brand.

Thats good of them to do that. Maybe look into getting them ceramic coated or some kind of UV protection? I dunno just thinking out loud.

Just received and installed the 2018 Renegade clear lens tail lights on my 2021 Mach 1. I gotta say they are the balls! It makes a huge difference, the clear lenses look much more business-like relative to the red lenses. I’ll definitely be looking for peeling.

Set #3 is peeling now. Guess I'll be looking for a new brand in the future.

Go with the Ford Performance clears. OEM on the ice white package so you know they’ll hold up better.

If they made a smoked version I would. Not interested in clear unfortunately.

There are tint kits for the smoked look. Anchor room makes one and I believe Big Worm does also.

Unfortunately this is a common theme with aftermarket headlights and taillights, they just don’t hold up like OEM.

Probably going with Form Lighting when I can't deal with the flaking anymore. I originally wanted them, but they were out of stock everywhere or overpriced on resellers websites when I was looking. Probably next year, unless the flaking gets significantly worse.
