I was recently hit in a parking lot in my M. They hit me right at the front end of the passenger side fender and knocked off my bumper cover. At the same time, they apparently pushed the headlight over as well. When it did, it snapped the two plastic mounting tabs at the top of the headlight.

Now the body shop is saying I may need a new headlight, despite the fact that my old one is still working fine. Xenon's, blinkers, everything. Still works fine. Only thing wrong is the mounting tabs are broken.

Is there a way to fix this? Epoxy?

Anybody experience anything similar?

Those both sound like great options. Thanks!

Is this the stuff you used?
