Questions about T5 Reflectors. May need new ones.

Gives Bad Advice.
I have a 4 retro fit LET kits in my new build. Unfortunately, because of age, the reflectors are a little beat. Not sure if it will effect the performance or not but my main concern is that the reflectors have cracks in the reflective side. Not all the way through it, just through the reflective area. Clips also need replacing.

Will these still give me good output or is it worth replacing?

If so, would I just look for replacement LET reflectors or should I buy something better?

Anyone have any 48" reflectors for sale?
 
We might have some in the garage, but I will have to ask Mike if we do. We have lots of stuff in there as you have seen. :rollface:
 
hopefully Lacy has some for you. Clips are cheap if the reflector is still shiny, may be able to clean them up with rubbing alcohol. Sunlight supply used to make a good reflector and so did Ice Cap. Not sure what is available these days besides LET
 
That would be great. I'll try and post a photo of the condition of the ones I have but I doubt you'll see the subtle cracks that exist.

Here's an example of the condition of one of them. Has minor stress cracks all over it. Worth replacing?
 
those lines are really odd, but dont look like cracks to me, at least in the pic, but its just aluminum and don't see why it would physically crack. id give polishing them a shot before trashing them.
