Default look over every square inch of the body. (more)

i have no idea who/when/how it was caused .. but there was a small blemish on my drivers side c pillar. very slight but noticable upon close inspection.

i was so happy to finally have my car after 4 long months that i didnt even think about it. :\

congrats man .. good luck going to sleep that night. hehehe

Default Unless you live in an area that requires it, TELL THEM MONDAY...

not to mount the front plate bracket.

Unless you like chipmunk size holes in your bumper.

That was a typical problem for that MY. There's a TSB on how to fix it.

Default AND... make sure the little metal keycode is in with the keys.

My dealer threw it out! But the word is the special code for gettng new keys made are the same as the last 4 digits of your VIN.

Check your oil (just for grins) and keep a close eye on it during the break in
