    Damage to new cars during delivery and while on the lot does happen. Small dents/scratches/chips, broken glass and other repairs are routinely done before cars are sold. I would not be worried with a repaired headlight lens.

    I concur with MrBill, if there isn't any other damage to the car I would have the dealer repair the headlight cover or replace the entire assembly. My brother took delivery of a Mazda some years ago that had a huge gash on the front bumper when he got it and the dealer repaired the problem for him about a week later with no ill effects.

    Im sure once fixed it will be as good as new - enjoy your new car !
