Yeah I saw the whole section.

Pretty vague with regards to the 5. Lamp lens is painted, missing, discolored, or does not fit properly line.

When I'm done with mine there will be no tint on the lens where the light output or reflector is. The lens is only the area light passes through.

Parents dropped by to give me my Birthday gift. Mom still buys me clothes for my Birthday. I did get some cash from them, and some cash from my Aunt and Uncle in Kentucky.

Wife and kids got me World Cup 2010 for wii. That will be fun for us all.
