Fog Light Lens Cracked

I just noticed the other day that my passenger side fog light lens is cracked. Anyone have the same problem?

This will not be covered under the bumper to bumper warranty, right? Where I can get a replacement? Any suggestion on which aftermarket fog light lamp that may fit.

Thanks in advance.

Matt

Take it back to the dealer and plead ignorance,I have had good luck getting things fixed
that normally would not have been covered.

With your location being NJ, I would say it is road debris. This is no dis on NJ, I'm in LA and road debris is a total bit*h here, got hit my some today.

I will stop by the dealer this week to see if they can do anything for me. If it will cost more than $150, I might just go with these: Autopia Fog Light

Will definitely get a protective film for the replacement fog lights.

Got a quote yesterday at the Bridgewater Acura dealership. It will cost $130 just for the passenger side fog light. It will take a week for the part to come in.

I found this website that sells protective film (22mil thick) cut specifically for the RDX fog lights.

Headlight Armor

I am not sure which color I should go with Clear, HID Blue, or GT Racing Yellow.

BTW, I don't see any protective fog light film from Laminx that are cut for the RDX, and they are only 17mil thick (color).
