Is the headlight unit damaged or just the lens broken? If just the lens, I'd opt for replacing both lens and since its the same money, many people really like the ecode lens, but I'd check to ensure the unit is okay first.
I have dealth with snapped plastic parts around the grill in the past. Gluing might not be strong enough. What I have done on my old spg was glue the piece back on so it is in place. Then, I fabricated a piece of thin metal to go over top of the broken piece extending past it. Drilled some small holes and used a rivet gun and rivets to hold down the piece of metal over top. I use a piece of a coffee can for the metal. To this day it has held up very well.(Approx. 4 years now) I had tried before to just glue it and it would continue to break.
The black pearl grill is a personal choice. I like it, but its still personal.
