Cracked Tail light

Hey all,

I've had my R58 for about 5 weeks, and some storms here in Chicago knocked a large branch off of a tree and apparently some aspect of it hit my R58. The car seems to just have a few marks that can be buffed out except that I managed to get a linear crack along the clear plastic over the Right Rear tail light. I'm amazed there is no other damage, as the car behind mine cracked their sunroof and had some significant body damage.

Is there a way to replace the cheap little plastic cover or is it going to require replacing the entire taillight assembly?

I looked on real OEM and ECS tuning and there doesn't seem to be anything available except for the entire taillight assembly.

Thanks

Hopefully this is the side you need if not be patient there on here all the time.

Yea, we had some bad storms roll through over the weekend.

You have to do the whole lens/ taillight , only thing i Could see it doing the blackline on the 2011+ LCI taillight upgrade.
