Dang that sucks. Personally, I wouldn't trust anything in Hawaiian Gardens. Hope they make things right and pay for a new housing.

dude thats lame if the damaged ur part they should claim it on their own insurance as a part they damaged and have it replaced with OEM parts. they cant blame the OEM housing it's a F'ing Infiniti - not an 88 Escort. They prob jammed something by force at the wrong angle. Maybe you should tell them that either they can either replace the part for you or that you will tell all you tuner friends in the area and on forums all over about their crappy service and how they broke a part on ur new car and want to just glue it back......

wow, u trusted a shop near HG with taking apart your thousand dollar headlights? gutsy...

is there anything in fine print that you signed that waives liability for them? if not, then i'd definitely try and get their asses to pay for it. they shouldn't have offered to do it in the first place if they didn't know what they're doing.
