Pry mate, you can bend them, twist them, throw them in the wall as hard as you want and they'll live another life I promise. Until today I've never heard of anyone braking a lens. The lip under is what you need to take care of... it may crack or bend a little but who cares... it won't interfere with remounting the lens perfectly back on the headlight housing - it will hide itself in the silicon you'll use to re-seal the thing.

I hate to be a downer on this, but I managed to slightly crack the surface of one of my lenses. And took chips of the unreplaceable paint off the serrated edge surface. If I was to do it again, I'd send the assembly to Charles to take apart.
