i have another (somewhat small) damage report from the cruise.

after the car wash, peter and i were coming home up 61. we stopped for food and on our way out i noticed that my left side windsheild trim had been popped out. it had never happened before. i snapped it back in and thought it would hold. last night while driving down the freeway, it got caught in the wind and was ripped back, bending the metal and ripping the rubber. ugh.

i know my damage isnt anything near rosey's or 311evo's but it still kinda sucks.

So thats why you had red tape on it this morning!

When spray-detailing my car last night I noticed my front bumper squeaking so it looks like hitting that pheasant broke a clip or something inside my bumper.
