So I have an idea of what I did wrong, I am just not sure how to fix it.

I used the Unity Glass mod: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/07/unity-glass-offers-refined-new-look-for-the-unity-launcher

After removing it, I cannot reset unity and it does not work.

Even after purging Unity and reinstalling it, I cannot seem to replace the missing files.

$unity --reset
