There is nothing that we did last night that could have caused that hole in that particular location, or any location really. It's not a huge hole, but it's enough that I won't pass inspection which I have to do by the end of this freaking month. They can hopefully just weld it. We'll see though. I just PM'd the seller.

So far so good. No problems, the idle has settled down now that it's learned what to expect. I'm still reluctant to push it just because of the noise we were hearing, but the car is driving just fine and sounds tasty with the Borla on. I'm taking it in to get inspected this week, so hopefully they can fix the hole and don't wind up telling me it's no good.

Strakes are on, and the mud guards go on today as long as they arrive and it doesn't rain. We still doing Sonic this Thurs?

the head light is holding the car up...b/c my original appraisal was for a halogen...not a HID. Dealer is getting a used one b/c new...it may total the car. New w/ all bulbs, ballast, and auto leveler is close to 2.5k at OE pricing.

But I have the manager's word that they will do everything possible to get it ready by 7/30. My flight leaves at 6...lol. Christ this is gonna be close...
