Are you sure those are on the outside of the lens, they look like inside marks to me? if outside use wet and dry paper 800 to start for about 15 minutes on each lens,using side to side rubbing or up and down no circular movements or sanding, move up in grade to 1000, then to 1500, then 2000, they should come out, finally use a pad on drill to polish or a polisher if you have one with some Tcut on it, after polishing use a UV treatment, or the other alternative is purchase some lights from a scrap FL2
 
Those are stress cracks in the polycarbonate. It's caused by expansion and contraction due to heat and cold. It's most likely to be on the inside, where the heat is most concentrated. ;)
 
Thanks Nodge68 & td4 van . Bother your answers are feesable & very possible . But looks like it may be new lamps or cut the lenses off & try to polish the inside
