If you can't see visible deterioration on the lenses then I would think it would be ok. If they are Xenon units then consider replacing your surviving lamp with the same brand as the new headlight comes with

Just give the other lamp a tap with a hammer and claim for both
Had one new light and it wasn't an issue. You could see the difference if you looked up close, but it didn't stand out from a distance. Did come with a 6000K bulb which I swapped out for a fresh pair of 4300Ks.
