Took it to Northstar for the timing chain tick. Of course when I went to show the service advisor the sound was nowhere to be found. :facepalm ---

Washed it, noticed a fresh little chip in passenger door. Bought some basecoat and that went on nice and smooth, grabbin a little clear tomorrow to finish the job. Then was taking out some scratches, and basically slipped up with the POS circular we have at work and put a little burn on the edge of the spoiler :facepalm Not big nor in a really visible spot, can probably correct it tomorrow. For my last trick, I managed to lock my key in the vehicle as well! Lots of fail today on my part. ---
