Default anyone know how much a right headlamp and xenon bulb is? my story.....

I brought my car in a shop in queens to put my Vortex kit in and i picked up the car 3 days later thinking they did a good job on the kit for $950. when i brought the car home, i turned on the lights and "****" my right light is out and condensation built up in it. so i took out my lamp to take a look and the latch on the light is all cracked and out of alignment. im brining the car back tomorrow to the shop for revenge. any ideas of what i should do or what i shoud buy to change my light?

Default dealer replaced passenger side xenon for me <more>

for free obviously since it had naturally burnt out on its own.. but after they did it there was "color shifting" so now my rt bulb looks yellow compared to my left bulb which is more blue.. do a search on this effect.. you may/should replace both bulbs..
cost out of pocket is $150 a bulb plus install.. I say install because the last thing you want is for you to touch the bulb or get oils on it and have it burn out again so I would have someone install it that way if something goes wrong they are responsible not you.
good luck -sorry to hear about your bad luck..
in my case I cant exactly ask the dealer to replace 2 more bulbs because there is a 2% color variation which is barely noticeable.. Im lucky I hadnt used my xenons more otherwise the effect would be MUCH more noticable ..
