The red part has a crack and has a slight gap, not sure how it got there but opened the hood to change my bulbs and noticed it.
Is it serious? TIA.

There should be no concern. It will not affect anything.

The gap in the plastic is actually bigger than I had pictured. Hopefully it'll be okay. Thanks for the input.

duct tape on the inside.. and if you wand glue and more duct tape on the outside if you worried about the 5deg for engine heat that will enter the crack..in other words shouldnt be a big deal
