Those pits in the headlights are deep enough that only sanding them down will remove them, they're cratered enough you can scrape off excess plastic with your fingernail. The paint MIGHT be saveable in most places, but I'm gonna get a quote for a respray, and fill out the NY DOT damage claim form, and see if the state will foot the bill.

Man that sucks! The same thing happened to my wife in her B5 Passat Wagon GLX a few years ago. It was 2 years old and we counted over 500 chips in the paint. It was the whole front end and the drivers side. We submitted a claim to the OH-DOT and they paid for the front and side re-paint. Good luck! Hope they fix it.
