Unhappy Headlight theft

Went out to my car this morning and my driver's side window was smashed in.
Took a look at the interior and nothing was missing so I figured some a-hole vandal didn't like me or my car very much and took it out on my window.
Then I took a look around the entire car to discover that the idiots actually tried to pry the right headlamp out with perhaps a screwdriver.
The light was damaged and the fender was damaged.

I had it towed to the body shop since I didn't want to drive it with all of the glass flying around.

Guess what the tow truck guy told me???? He said that he sees this happen on the newer Porsches all of the time. Little "Fast and Furious" punks steal the lights to get the HID bulbs out of them.

MINE ARE HALOGEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
