In the manual, it says to drive with the headlights on to get rid of the condensation. If it's an excessive amount then get it checked out by the dealer. |

The clear coat on the carbon fiber bits get micro-scratches on them if you look at them funny. Both on the interior and exterior.
I had a brand new never-installed M-Performance rear winglet that had clear coat imperfections on it, and acquired new ones sitting inside a clean plastic bag. If you want the CF clear coat to remain flawless and glossy, you need to get proper protection on the surface. This applies to even the CF trim on the dash and center console.

Update: The condensation dissapeared after the car was off for about 30 mins. It formed at the lower part of the headlights around the inner bottom corners towards the grille. |

Normally, headlights have ventilation holes on the rear side which is shielded from the elements.
I would be surprised if there were holes in the actual lens.

There are no holes or vents on the headlight lens itself. That would be one of the poorest decisions in the world.
There is a white membrane vent which allows moisture out and air in. Some condensation in the corners of the headlights is tail lights is considered normal and no repair is necessary. If there are physical water spots and runs inside the light, then a repair is necessary. |
