Washed it and then popped the hood as usual and just looked in the engine compartment, looking for anything or nothing.

I hauled a new mattress and box spring from the mattress store over to my mother's house. Worked out perfect.

Dont be sad lol. Mine looks rougher everytime i go out. No matter how much i avoid riding next to bush, i get scratches. I usually will polish 50% of the scratch out so it's not so obvious. Just dont want to burn through my clear just yet. Probably before i get rid of it someday.
