The US lights do not posses the metal clips, rather, the lens is permanently bonded to the reflector. To replace either, you have to buy both, which typically is about $120 per side or more. You won't be covering the reflector in mylar through the hole into which the bulb fits..
Not that people break a lot of lenses, as the smart ones use headlight protection film, but as soon as you do, the E-spec earns it's reward, not even considering the vastly improved beam pattern and uniformity, or the ability to use overwattage bulbs without problem.
