I've seen similar ones advertised for other makes/models and thought they were pretty pricey for what they are. I'm guessing the plastic will turn cloudy or yellow before the stone chips cause enough damage, and these covers won't stop or slow down the color change or cloudiness, so I never seriously considered buying them.
If you want to do what you want to do, you have to do what you have to do.

In another thread we discussed applying chemicals (wax, Rain-X) to the headlights. The general thought is to keep them waxed. That may help reduce the yellowing.
As much as I love weathertech products, this does not seem like a value-added modification to me.
