If you're a 2009 or before and you're comfortable with taking off the front bumper (see the instructions for installing the front underbody spoiler (http://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/AI/BII39553.pdf)), you should be able to do this for around $100 which will replace the entire fog light housing (http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...ll&vinsrch=noA)

If a 2010+, it would be the same but I can't find any instructions on how to drop the front bumper.

Hope this helps and good luck...

Hmm...$100...mine's cracked too. Does anyone have a recommendation for a film or something to put over the lens to prevent this? I'd hate to replace one and then have it happen again =/

welcome to the club-it is one of the complaints with the acura-glass foglights that crack easy. Both of the foglights cracked within the first 6 months on my 06 tsx. Luckily the dealer replaced them free as a one-time goodwill. I then put rockblocker (no longer in business) on them and no problems since then.

I bought but haven't yet installed Headlight Armor lens protectors, they received high marks on many forums. http://www.headlightarmor.com/
