Default Headlight help!!!

ok so i just bought a set of the 06+ bi-xenon headlights, as i was driving on the highway the other day, a rock about the diameter of a quarter shot from under the truck in front of me, i was far behind so i thought it wouldnt hit, but apparently it hit my passenger light, it didnt break it but there is a chip on the light, my question is, should i fill this in with something so it wont be weak in case it ever gets hit again? or should i just leave it like that? i was thinking maybe filling with some kind of glue or silicone, but i wanted to get some advice before i did something stupid, thanks for any help

Auto glass shops fix windshield chips. The results are excellent. Unfortunately your chip is on the edge. Little you can do.

It's plastic, not glass. You might be able to polish it out, but it's probably not worth the trouble.

Na well I'm not too worried about the looks, it's not that bad but I just didn't want it to be a weak spot you kno in case it gets hit there again, I don't want it to crack
