I would truly have to observe the condition of the headlights in order to analyze if the crack is of any danger, or is instead just a distraction.

The crack looks fine, but the support posts look a little light.

OTOH, they usually run better the harder you drive them, so get out there and put some miles on that thing..

Very dangerous and very, very expensive. Unless you just rent it for a little while. Then it might be worth the $$$.
