Also, my brake light is red so could there be some issue with the plastic formulation in the clear lenses making them more susceptible to cracking etc?
When I was in the market, every Z4 I test drove had a cracked 3rd brake light. That was from a 2.5i up to an M, so red and clear lens ones.

My car is on at least it's 3rd one. I see in the maintenance history that one was replaced under warranty.
