How do you fix that shy of replacing the whole assembly?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Beautiful, I have a 2000 S too. Looks like you are right down the road from Carolina Motorsports Park. If you ever wanted to check out driving on a track you can check out the PCA which runs driver education events there.
Will try and take more pics tomorrow, she's currently in bed for the night. And thanks Steve, Ive always been curious about Carolina Motorsports Park, now I have a reason to go there!
When I lived in Charlotte and my boys split their time between me and their mom in Moncks corner, sc I used to drive right by it all the time. Now that I am in FL it is kind of far... I never did make it before I moved, but I am going to try to go their with Carolinas Region PCA next year.

Yes the headlights, was wondering what would have caused that...there are 2 holes in each lens with a burnt amber color to them. How do you fix that shy of replacing the whole assembly?
That was recently discussed. It is a very common problem. There doesn't seem to be any cheap and easy way to deal with it. Here's the thread:

I love the color as well! CMP is one of the safest, cheapest tracks to start out on, it's definitely worth a trip if that's something you're interested in doing.
