Wear and Tear at current mileage!

So far the damage I have on the car since Oct 2009@55000 is.....:

1. Air Dam- got ripped off during trip to Volcano Buono Mall ends in mayhem as the car plunges into a 2 1/2 foot deep moon crater obscured by rainwater filling. This ripped half of the lip right off the bumper. Of course everybody riding was like OOOOOOH. Wifey was like, 'honey, I hear something dragging in the front......'

2. Left Fender Liner - it looks like a small shark took a bite right out of the center. I have no idea how this happened.

3. Right Fender Liner- is missing-- like half completely gone. I just noticed this

4. Sunroof - wow, thanks for trying to steal and breaking my sunroof

5. OEM Calipers - clear coat flaking right off from heat I suppose.

6. Driverside lock- thanks again to my favorite gypsies for sticking a big a** screwdriver in the lock to get some euro change or whatever. Hope you bought a Rockstar and had a great time.

7. Steering Column- nothing like hotwire attempts to get your shroud, cylinder (key), and steering lock moded for free!

Mine is currently ~55k atm and so far:

1. Had a little backyard rally going on and ripped my OEM lip in half. Good excuse for a nice Ralliart style CF one

2. Had a white smoke scare not too long ago and cleaned the PCV and haven't seen smoke since.

3. Every time I wash it I always find a new scratch/chip in the paint.

Surprisingly that's about it. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones after reading OP.

My fender liners are the same. Lancershop.com has new ones for $60 each.

at 72000 miles.

1. I've got the piece of the se lip missing that connects the lip and the undertray. Apparently two of my remaining undertray clips fell out somehow, a piece of the undertray was dragging down the highway, and that part that connects them fell out. Still trying to find a replacement.

2. I've got 2 small cracks in my rear bumper under the liscence plate, looks like somebody bumped into me or something.

3. Various random scratches.

4. Hood and front bumper were repainted by previous owner, the lip has a whole bunch of rock chips in it, and there are spots where the previous owner tried to touch up rock chips on the hood, wetsanded those spots, and never buffed it, so it looks dull. and that's about it.

almost 41k

1. lip is scratched on both ends ... can't see it unless you stoop down. Bugs me to know it is there though

2. 3/4 flaking fading calipers (need to fix this soon)

3. scratch on the rear drivers side quarter that i hate. idk how it got there.

4. zero lift kit looks like it went to hell and back, all bent and ugly (straightened and fitted better, the best way i can)

What about interior wear? Anything guys?
