Note that the NSX came from the factory with small clips (body colored covers) on the 2 outboard screws. You can see them in the SM pages early in the video. These are still available from amayama & the like. I replaced mine, but in hindsight, it's of questionable benefit since the headlights are only up at night, & you can't see the screw holes then anyway. If the clips are still there, they can be a nuisance to remove so I can see why people don't bother replacing them.

Important note: after you've attached the retractor covers, check the retractor operation with the hood down as well. There is a lot of potential adjustment on the retractor cover locations. On both mine & a friend's, there was a fair amount of adjustment required to avoid rubbing the retractor cover on the hood near the inboard upper corner.

I don’t see a separate p/n just for the glass lens sorry.
