Fog Lights

Fog Lights
So today while in my driveway, I noticed that my drivers side fog light is smashed on my new 16 Fit. I can say for certain the culprit was the sand/salt we use on our highways, but it's still a disappointment seeing as I haven't even hit 4000km on the ODO . Obviously my warranty doesn't cover it ( I called to make sure ) so now I'm stuck with the bill for the $108 assembly plus labour. Is this a common issue on the Fits? I had a Corolla for 6 years and never once had an issue like this regarding the fog lights. I didn't touch the light, but from looking at the lens it looks like it is glass and not plastic? Are there any suggestions on how to protect the fog lamps so I don't have to pay for a new one every 3500Km?
TL;DR Fog light smashed, What can I use to protect them?

Google Headlight Armor...that might help.
I have to say, on my 2010 Honda Fit, I woke up one day and both lights were cracked. Have no idea when or "how" it happened. They are pretty vulnerable.
Now have a 2016, .....and thanks for reminding me, I might want to get some protection on those lights before it happens again.
Or even check....knock on wood, I hope it hasn't already happened.

Yep. As fitchet said, headlight armor or laminx can help. A more expensive alterative would be to replace the units with Morimotos or other LED lamps with polycarbonate lenses. You'd also gain better light output of course.
