Default Someone vandalized my headlight (plastic cover is shattered)

Someone broke my headlight cover (Left Headlight). Is this replaceable? I'm praying it is, otherwise I'm out $900 (I'd have to replace both because the other one is so weathered) to replace both of them to make it match. Anyone have any suggestions? It's an '06 cross limited. Perhaps someone has one they are willing to part with.

No, the lens is not replaceable, BUT you can replace just the one headlight with a new or used one and refurb both headlights back to like new condition !
Some have even had luck with Walmart/Sam's Club doing it for $30 or so .......

Anyone know somewhere I can find a headlight replacement. I can't find anything under $600, I can't believe how much it is just bc the plexiglass is broken. This is heartbreaking

Your insurance will cover it unless you only have liability.

I have full coverage but I'm afraid to make a claim because A. I don't want my premiums to jump B. I have a $500 deductible.. puts me in a tight spot, you know?

Vandalism is a comp loss and should have no effect on you premium. You didn't cause the loss.

You also need to state which headlight, LH or RH.
Maybe someone on the forum has one ?
