grrr Just came out to look at my car AND!!

hey guys just got out to look at my car this afternoon and i was pissed when i saw one of my lights busted!!. i was like wtf i went down to the app manager and yelled at them wtf lol so she then tells me that the landscapers where near by and found chunks of grass inside the light. turns out that the retards mow the lawn and blow the grass out onto the cars and i just got the rock in mine. well contacted them and the dude was saying it could of bin someone else or it hapend when i was driving anyway we talk and talked and he finally agreed to pay for the lense i told him im only charging them for the lense since i can do the work my self.

I just signed in for the tour! My first post here!
Sorry to hear about the mowerman incident.
Hey soveit_c43, does you ride have factory HIDs or halogens? From what I have seen on Fleabay both types of lens are available for about $100. Why I ask is because mine are factory HID and I need to change one lens to meet legal codes here. My vehicle inspection shop says my left front lens is incorrect and it needs to be changed to North American road standards.
(My car was first registered in Japan in Jan/95. I bought it in Oct/09, imported it in Feb/10 and just got it on the road this last week.) I'm using DEPO brand replacements, but the lenses protrude almost 3/16" more than stock. Pls let me know how the lens thing works for you.

It would be good for me if you sent me a link to the Fleabay store.
Thanks

dang, soveit, that looks pretty dramatic. i guess i wont be parking near any grassy areas any time soon. good thing it was the lens and not any bodywork damage ... at least the lens is a relatively easy fix.
