So I had a door resprayed and it turned out great. But when I got home, I noticed that one of my headlights is now fogged on the inside. I’m wondering what could have caused this at the body shop. More importantly, is there a fix for this other than a new light? Thanks for the help !!

Never did this before?

I'd try removing one of the caps and put the headlight in the sun to try and dry it out, then close it up and see if the fog returns.

No clue why it would be correlated to the body shop visit..

My friend's LX had a light that wouldn't stop fogging, and the humidity is probably why the LED strip went out on that side. Ended up having to replace it, after months of trying to dry it out and the fog coming back.
 
Pull a bulb or two and let it sit overnight, it should clear up okay. Then check how well your bulbs and dust caps seal.
