Chrome reflector loose on xenon headlight

so i just bought a pair of xenon headlights and the driver side headlight seems to have a little problem. The chrome reflector that surrounds the high beam seem to be loose. When i shake the headlight that part would bounce and wobble. Any of you guys have an idea of how i can fix this?? And would this cause a larger problem in a long run if i just leave it as is?

Have a look in the rear of the light, and make sure the lense hasn't popped off the leveller ball socket. If it has, some upward leverage will click it back on.

Ive open mine (remove the lenses) and glue back the chrome cover (jb weld) .

However my headlights were custom by the previous owner, he might broke something.

Its annoying on the road at night because the light is boucing up and down with the road bumps, which can annoy the other drivers.
