You can have someone wet sand it and make it new again for less than $100 or do it yourself for like $15-$20.

it is plastic, and i highly doubt you will find lens alone. might get lucky to find one with a damaged housing, but good lens on the cheap and swap lenses.

The idiots DO NOT sell the glass separatly. This is one of the most strange things they ever have done since this is one of the biggest problems the newer MBs with plastic lenses have in almost all over the world.

As more and more ppl facelift their cars you should be able to find some used lights. Good luck.
