The Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens is styled independently of adjacent vehicle panels. To the extent that any feature lines are illustrated, they are intended to illustrate the crest and valley of the feature and are not necessarily sharp bends in the part. Shading is used to illustrate the curvature of the part and not color. Areas shown in or sounded by broken lines are not claimed. The surface normally visible when the Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens is attached to a vehicle is called the “Class A” surface is claimed. The surface not normally visible when the Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens is attached to a vehicle is called the “Class B” surface and is not claimed. Any functional features of the Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens are not claimed. The Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens is normally sold as a taillight lamp assembly where the Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens is permanently attached to a reflector. The most ornamental feature of the lamp assembly is the Vehicle Rear Taillight Lens.
